Synopsis
What happens when a blind man is given a chance to regain his eyesight ...

My thoughts

-- Whether you like the film will depend on 2 factors ...
(i) whether you like the performance of the male lead ... because he is given a very tough role to play, having to grapple with internal struggles, dilemma and contradiction ...
(ii) whether you buy into the plot and philosophy of what may happen when a blind man regains his eyesight ...

-- There are some scenes that will remind you of scenes from earlier films of the director ... for better or for worse ... for better becos it does evoke some memories (and allow him to be consistent in his style/approach) ... for worse if you think a director should seek to innovate in every new film ...

-- I like ...
(i) the beginning scene, the ending scene and the last 2/3 of the film (starting from the eve before he removes his bandage) ... 
(ii) the music at the ending credit is also good ...
(iii) it makes you think about LIFE ...
... what is beauty to those who are blind
... what is beauty to those who can see
... is blind a curse?!
... is seeing a blessing?!
etc

Conclusion
Given that the lead has a very tough role to play, and the film has an important message, I will say, recommended.
