I'm not certain of the year of this movie. I think it was in color. I think it was produced between later 80's and before 2000 but not certain. I think it may have been a british production but not certain. It's broken up into 2 or 3 parts. It starts with a boy being blind and living in this town or village where people are being attacked or murdered. I seem to remember him having a dog.His sister is older, very pretty, and soon to be married. His mother is a doctor or some kind of medical aide as there are many other blind people in the village. He's about to be operated on by a doctor trying to restore his sight.Then the movie changes. His sister is now the blind one. She has a small nude photo shot at some point in the movie. The boy can leave the home by a back window(?) and leave the house by going through the cemetery behind the house. You see the blind people being 'herded' by the sighted aides at some point in the movie. Then I think the movie changes up again and now the mother or someone else is the blind one. Sound familiar to anyone? I can't find the title and would like to track down the movie.

This is a delayed response, as I haven't been stopping by this site.

You're welcome! I'm happy that I could identify this eerie film for you.
