NEW YORK, Sept. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- We are saddened to learn that the National Federation of the Blind plans to protest the film BLINDNESS. Miramax Films and filmmaker Fernando Meirelles have worked diligently to preserve the intent and resonance of the acclaimed book by Nobel prize winning author, Jose Saramago, that is a courageous parable about the triumph of the human spirit when civilization breaks down.
