About this movie

This inspiring film follows Eitan Armon, a young man grappling with the challenge of losing his sight. At just 20 years old, while serving in the military, Eitan learns he has Retinitis Pigmentosa, a rare genetic disease that is slowly robbing him of his vision. With only 5% of his central vision left and time running out, Eitan chooses not to focus on what he cannot control but instead sets his sights on the ultimate test of endurance—climbing Yosemite National Park’s iconic El Capitan, one of the world’s most formidable granite walls. Looking Up chronicles Eitan’s remarkable journey, offering a powerful message of resilience and reminding us that no obstacle is insurmountable for those who choose to face life with positivity and purpose.
