This poignant documentary portrait by writer, director, and producer Rodney Evans chronicles the experiences and creative process of photographer John Dugdale as he adapts to his loss of vision due to an HIV-related illness.

Persistence of Vision

Filmmaker Rodney Evans embarks on a scientific and artistic journey, questioning how his loss of vision might impact his creative future. Through illuminating portraits of three artists: a photographer (John Dugdale), a dancer (Kayla Hamilton), and a writer (Ryan Knighton), the film looks at the ways each artist was affected by the loss of their vision and the ways in which their creative process has changed or adapted.
