The Witness

Natsume Hamanaka was a police rookie with a promising future until she was in a car crash that killed her brother and took her eyesight. Three years later, she gets around with her seeing-eye dog Pal, but she’s unable to get over her regret and devastation.

The Witness, a remake of Korea’s Blind, presents a gripping mystery through the eyes of Natsume, a blind woman whose testimony is dismissed due to her disability. The film stands out with its unique perspective shots, solid performances, and an unpredictable twist ending that challenges viewers’ assumptions. A standout moment is Natsume’s daring escape with the help of her intelligent guide dog—an emotional highlight that reinforces the film’s themes of resilience and underestimated strength.
