Synopsis
“Ayana” is a supernatural drama featuring the story of Ayana (25), an African-American blind woman who loves reading audio-books read by a particular voice. It focuses on her chance encounter with Dave (29), an American man who is attending to his dying father. While Dave is trying to find marijuana to ease his father’s pains, he runs into Ayana, and she recognizes her favorite reader. Ayana addresses issues of universal education and accessibility for the arts, namely accessibility of literature and visual media for the visually impaired youth. Crafted from scratch to incorporate audio-description in its sound design, it is intended to create awareness amongst the sighted audiences of the need to invest more time, strategies and technologies in providing more universally accessible art work for disabled audiences, craving for accessible informative and aesthetic experiences.
