Looking Up tells the inspiring story of Eitan Armon, a young man battling progressive blindness from Retinitis Pigmentosa, a rare genetic condition. Diagnosed while serving in the IDF, Eitan refuses to let his 95% vision loss define him. Determined to live boldly, he sets out to climb El Capitan in Yosemite National Park, one of the world’s most challenging granite walls.
With resilience, humor, and guidance from his doctors, mentors, and climbing partners, Eitan’s journey to the top of El Capitan becomes a testament to the strength of the human spirit. You won’t want to miss the stunning footage of Eitan’s climb on the JCC’s big screen!
