Blindscape (1993)
A blind man awakes in what may be a forest. (What he touches or hears is in color; the rest of the world, when it is visible to us, is in black and white.) First, he explores his surroundings. Then, fear takes over and what he hears, touches and imagines frightens him. He gathers the courage to assert himself, almost with bestial intensity. He realizes that people have gathered to watch him as a policeman tries to coax him out of danger.
