This rare and intimate portrait explores a young woman’s perspective about living with albinism – a condition which has often made her an outsider – who is determined to lead a normal life.
“I’ll never be able to drive a car, but that’s about it” she says as she climbs the highest indoor climbing arena in Europe.
