Synopsis

Blindsighted is a 2025 American Christian psychological thriller film written, co-produced, and directed by Sofia Coppola, and starring Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Mackenzie Foy, Pedro Pascal, Ashley Johnson, Laurence Fishburne, and Melissa McBride. It follows a Christian teenage girl born with congenital blindness who, after surviving a near-fatal car accident that kills her father, is gifted the ability to read minds, feel one's emotions, and predict miracles of God. Distributed entirely by Lionsgate and a co-production between Legendary Pictures and RatPac-Dune Entertainment, Blindsighted opened in theaters on January 27th, 2025; it was a blockbuster success and earned $1.45 billion worldwide, making it the first Christian film to gross over $1 billion and thus, the highest-grossing Christian film of all time. The film received universal and critical acclaim, with many calling it Coppola's magnum opus and widely praising its visual effects, direction, editing, style, cinematography, the performances of Armstrong and Foy, score, themes, and emotional weight; however, it drew controversy for its extreme violence for a Christian film along with its usage of drugs and alcohol. Among its accolades, Blindsighted won numerous Academy Awards including Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Visual Effects, while Armstrong received a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress.

  • misterwolf After visiting her therapist Mark Conway and his wife Allison, Aaliyah consults Baptist preacher, Frank Warren, about why she is experiencing miracles of God and why she has her newfound abilities. He says that she is now, herself, a miracle, and hints that her abilities are not predicting phenomenons, but rather, she is.

Francine is nearly killed by an assailant and is hospitalized; when Aaliyah visits Francine, she encounters the assailant, who intends to finish her off. Fortunately, Mark and Allison are there to visit as well and they call the police, saving Francine's life.

  • misterwolf One year later, Aaliyah and Anna have been living a peaceful life, while Francine is in therapy and is living in an apartment, determined to rebuild her life. Warren calls Aaliyah to his church, wanting to speak with her. She predicts a miracle while being driven their by Anna, and suspects that Warren has something to do with it; upon entering, Aaliyah is asked by Warren to look into his mind. Reluctantly agreeing, she discovers that Warren was present during her car accident and watched in horror as it killed her father. Not wanting the daughter of his own best friend to die, he had prayed to God and Jesus for her live, though he did not know she would be granted her own abilities. Aaliyah, although surprised, remembers her father's last words to her, and tells Warren that she is forever grateful for being given a second chance to live, before being embraced by him and being told to walk in peace.
