Leadership in Movies - Farther than the Eye Can See by Leader Jenieryll Jomarie Mangalindan

Hi Prof,
Resend…I send in your blog link this afternoon but cannot see in your blog page.  Also add relation of movie chosen to my life story.

Leadership in Movies – Session 3
Jenieryll Jomarie Mangalindan

Movie:  Farther than the Eye Can See 4


Sypnosis
This is a true story about Erik Weihenmayer who was born with retinoscheses, a degenerative eye disorder that would leave him blind by the age of thirteen. But Erik was determined to rise above this devastating disability and lead a fulfilling and exciting life.

In this poignant and inspiring movie, he shares his struggle to push past the limits imposed on him by his visual impairment-and by a seeing world.  He tells the story of his dream to climb the world's highest mountain – Mt. Everest, and how he is turning that dream into astonishing reality.
