Release Date
Directed by Lana Wilson, Look Into My Eyes opens in theaters, including The Forum in NYC, on Friday, September 6.
Synopsis
Crystal balls, neon signs leading into candle-lit rooms, ladies in caftans: these images of psychics fill the popular imagination. But throughout New York City a community of sensitive, tuned-in individuals, with their own stories of loss and love, offer bridges to the beyond for sincere seekers.
Documentarian Lana Wilson (Miss Americana, Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields) turns her eye for intimacy and revelation on sessions between psychics and clients: a doctor wants assurance about the young girl who died in her care. An adopted young woman inquires about her birth parents. A pet medium (who also happens to be a cinephile) channels an anxious dog’s concerns. Equally absorbing are the questions the psychics ask themselves: Am I really helping people? Do I have a true gift? Does it matter?
