Spoilers ahead
Danny Valddesechi [Chris Pine] is an intelligent, handsome, and unexpectedly brave young man who has been blind since birth. He volunteers for a risky experimental visual prosthesis that would implant a microchip in the visual cortex of his brain, connecting to a camera that could grant him sight—at best, only fuzzy black-and-white images. During the testing phase, he crosses paths with a compassionate Punjabi nurse, Leeza [Anjali Jay] Leeza Raja, whose presence brings warmth and questions about what might be possible for him to see.
