Introduction

I Can See, based on the Bible story of Jesus healing of a man born blind, Tobias is brought to life. Born, blind, in Jerusalem during the time of strict Jewish laws, Roman occupation and the arrival of Jesus, Tobias life becomes complicated. His cousin, David, was also born with a deformity, a clubfoot. Together they explored the world around them only to find that they were ostracized; they had to depend on each other.

Themes and Setting

This was a time of great disruption, domination, and turbulence; which laws to follow and what to believe in. Neither Tobias nor David knew, the events that were occurring around them, would reach into their lives, change their beliefs and turn their worlds upside down. Their story describes their struggles to fit in a society that shunned them, the miracles that changed their lives and learning to believe in the unknown.
