Looking Up

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, one of the world’s most challenging granite walls. With resilience, humor, and guidance from mentors like renowned positive psychologist Tal Ben-Shahar, retinal researchers Drs. Edwin Stone and Budd Tucker, and climbing partners Jay Lefkowitz and Willie Benegas, Eitan’s journey becomes a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit.
