Snowblind 2009

Directed by Vikram Jayanti

Filmmaker Vikram Jayanti offers this gripping documentary that follows legally blind dogsled musher Rachael Scdoris as she competes in her third Iditarod, the punishing 1,161-mile dogsled race through the treacherous Alaskan wilderness. Accompanied by helper and Iditarod veteran Joe Runyan, Scdoris calls upon a remarkable well of courage and determination to contend with the dangerous race course, unusually vocal critics and her disability.
