Sight: A Story of Asian-American Success
On the coast of Moldova, the Hendrichs adopted a child who had been blind since birth. No matter how many clinics the family attended or how many experts they called, the doctors said Maria would never be able to see. But after six months of silence, there was finally one call back. The fifteen-year-old Maldivian and her new family ended up in Nashville, Tennessee, at the eye clinic of the only man the family was told could perform the miracle they wanted: Dr. Ming Wang.
Dr. Wang stands with very few as a Harvard and MIT graduate with a doctorate in laser physics. As a Chinese-American who came to the United States with fifty dollars in his pocket and the expectations of his hometown behind him, Dr. Wang is now a living testament to the American Dream.
But in a changing America that accepts immigrants yet expects nothing of them, Dr. Wang has his own message to share. Universal Studios is launching the movie Sight, which documents the doctor’s story, on Oct. 27, 2023
