Mia was only 3 years old when her parents noticed that something was wrong with her vision.
Edith Lemay and Sébastien Pelletier, from Montreal, Canada, took her to the doctor seeking answers and received a life-changing diagnosis: retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic disease with no cure that gradually shuts down vision. In 2019, the blow came twice more: Colin and Laurent, their other children, had the same condition. Only Leo, the youngest, was spared.
A specialist gave them an idea that became a family mission: fill the children with “visual memories” before the darkness advances. That was how the journey began, taking them through Mongolia, Turkey, Egypt, and the Himalayas, with a camera preserving every landscape their children would get to see. They could not cure them, but they could give them the whole world while their eyes still allowed it.
