Penny Mishkin

Penny, a 24-year-old woman from an affluent but emotionally distant family, learns she is going blind due to a degenerative eye disease. As her vision deteriorates, Penny turns to psychoanalysis not in hopes of reversing her condition, but to confront years of denial and silence. Through reckoning with her parents, reconnecting with her siblings, and reclaiming her own voice, Penny begins to redefine what it means to truly see, to be seen, and to heal.
