Sonia Soberats is a sixty seven year old Venezuelan woman. The grief from the loss of her two sons caused such great havoc in her life that she lost the sense of sight entirely. Today she is part of a prestigious group of blind photographers in New York City. She also teaches this technique in Venezuela. One of her workshops takes place in Mucuruba, a little Andean town where a festival of light is held every year. Lighting 21,000 candles throughout the village, this experience combines teaching and tradition.
