Filmmaker Robinson crafts an accessible and immersive account of growing up with strabismus, a condition of eye misalignment that causes difficulties with tracking objects, depth perception, and reading. Intermittent abstract artwork by Rea (Fixing Flamingos) depicts sight tests for readers to engage with throughout and help to illustrate how the subject navigated the world: how strabismus affected his performance in school, how he related to others, and how others perceived him.
