Indie distributor Cinema Guild has acquired North American distribution rights for documentary “For The Moon” (“Car la Lune”), directed by Éric Baudelaire, that will premiere in the Currents section of the upcoming New York Film Festival.

The film is a collaborative work created with five visually impaired students at the National Institute for the Young Blind in Paris. 

Shot at the institute, “For the Moon” “moves between observational cinema and collective invention, questioning the very notion of the gaze and the construction of images when our perception of the world relies on senses other than sight,” according to the synopsis.
