Based on the amazing true story of Doctor Ming Wang, a world-renowned eye surgeon, this film celebrates the possibility of the light coming from within a person being more powerful than any light coming into them from outside.
Sight, releasing to theaters on May 24th, follows Dr. Ming Wang (Terry Chen) as he tries to help a young girl, Kajal (Mia SwamiNathan), regain her sight.
In order that she may elicit more sympathy and loosen purse strings as a beggar, Kajal’s step-mother purposely pours sulphuric acid in her eyes, blinding her. Found abandoned on the streets by Sister Marie (Fionnula Flannagan), she comes to American, where Sister Marie seeks out Dr. Wang to see if he can help the young girl.
Eager to be of service, Wang sets about analyzing her case with his close friend and co-worker, Dr. Misha Bartnovsky (Greg Kinnear). They conclude that Kajal can’t be helped, but she reminds Wang so much of a friend he lost years ago in China, that he’s determined to find some way.
When Jesus cured the blind man in John 9, all He needed was a little mud.
Dr. Ming Wang requires more.
Oh, sure, some might say that Ming is a miracle worker in his own right. But the good doctor knows that curing someone’s sight takes more than mud. It takes knowledge. It takes skill. And Ming (he might say with all due modesty) has plenty of both. You’d expect nothing less from the country’s best eye surgeon.

“Sight” is the latest in a series of inspirational true stories from Angel Studios.
The films, which include “Cabrini” from earlier in the year, are about people of faith. Well-written and beautifully acted, these movies deservedly are striking a chord among faith-based audiences.

Dr. Ming Wang, a Chinese immigrant who overcame staggering obstacles to become one of the most renowned eye surgeons in the United States, says his faith has given him a passion for caring for the "least of these."
"The biggest impact of being a Christian over the last many decades is it makes me humble, recognizing that we, as human beings, are ultimately limited. We have to be willing to ask God for help," Dr. Wang told The Christian Post.
