As a young soldier in the Vietnam War, a blast from a grenade cost Michael Naranjo his eyesight. While the Tewa and Santa Clara Pueblo artist has no eyes and the use of just one of his hands, his sculptures are treasured worldwide and sit prominently in spaces as esteemed as the Vatican. Through interviews and archival footage, a portrait emerges of a deeply thoughtful and principled man, who defied expectations and had the strength to fight past critics and stereotypes to build the life he had always dreamed of. Lovingly directed by his daughter Jenna Naranjo Winters, Dream Touch Believe is a documentary that stands as a testament to the power of creativity, perseverance, and family love.
