Despite a lifetime of adversity, a blind high school wrestler attempts to win a New Jersey State Championship before the end of his senior year. Anthony Ferraro has always tried to live a normal life. As he entered junior high, Anthony decided to try his luck at wrestling. After a dismal first season, he begged his father to enroll him in a wrestling club. His father obliged and found a coach willing to teach a blind kid to wrestle. The following year, despite his obvious disadvantage, Anthony went 24-1. Three years later, Anthony has set a number of goals for himself; to become the first three-time District Champ in his school's history, break the school record for most wins, and become the first blind state champion in New Jersey wrestling history. The question is, does he have a shot in the dark?

The Story Behind “A Shot In the Dark” - Chris Suchorsky - Director / Producer:
In the winter of 2012, I received an email from a former teammate and All-American wrestler, Lou Cerchio. He had come across a sizzle reel about a blind high school wrestler named Anthony Ferraro. Ollie, Anthony’s brother, had posted the sizzle with the hope of finding some help. He was looking to make a film about his little brother, who was a star wrestler, but also happened to be blind. I reached out to Ollie to discuss the project. To my surprise, he was now living in LA working as an editor for Hulu and had essentially abandoned the idea. A few months later, when he returned home to visit family, we met for lunch and discussed the film. Ollie was interested in making a short, but I thought there was potential for a feature film. After meeting with Anthony, we decided we would film him over his senior year of high school and “see what happens”.
A few months later, we were filming. Ollie produced from LA while my crew and I followed Anthony and his team throughout the 2012-2013 season. By the end of the year, the film had hit a standstill. Both Ollie and I were consumer with other projects. I believed there was a story in the can, but knew it was going to be a Herculean task to put a film together.
By 2015, I decided I wanted to finish the film. I had the first 15 minutes edited and had planned to sit down with Ollie to look at what I put together. Sadly, a few days later, Ollie passed away. At his funeral, I told Anthony I would finish the film.
Two years later, we had a rough cut of the film. We launched a Kickstarter campaign with the hope of reaching $40,000. We hit that number in four days and raised over $83,000 by the end of the campaign.
The film premiered at the Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival and went on to win eight Best Documentary and Audience Awards over the next year on the festival circuit. We received a number offers for the film including Soul Pancake (Rainn Wilson’s company), Chassy Media (Adam Carolla’s company) and Gravitas Ventures. We opted to release the film independently.
Sincerely,
Chris Suchorsky

This guy is insanely inspiring. Most people can't do anything he does with perfect eyesight. He deserves every single bit of love he gets and i swear he just radiates positivity. We should aspire to be like this man. One love ❤
He never give up
Who is “most people”?
@@BaldLezB_Inhonestly? Just us normal people who can see. Have you seen a normal person who is good at that many things? Not common. Yet this man can do it without eyesight. Repect
@du27🤏💋 the porn bots have found their way to RUclips huh
“Able bodied” is the correct term. “Normal” implies that us with disabilities are less than
I always love the "yeewww"
Yeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwws
Yewwwwww
Yeewwwwwwwwwwwww
Anthony is such a wonderful human being. Inspirational, honest, and just totally rad.
Seems annoying to me
Agreed
@du27🤏💋 shut up bot
@@timnorton4302 boy have some respect
@@Riseyi why because he can't see if thats the case I'll shut my eyes and you give me respect
i really needed to hear that “Just keep living”
My guy lost his brother and his vision but still manages to see the brighter side of life. Here I am, not being able to get over my parents divorce from 8 years ago. You sir, are truly an inspiration to many of us. One love! ❤️
Hey 8 years is a long time LOOK go in your mind ..deep and find that day ....except it and never go back your not excepting your own mind funny how it works ...your brain right. 🧠
you might want to consider seeing a therapist if you're still unable to get over your parents' divorce. That's a long time to not get over _your own_ divorce, much less another person's. If you're unwilling or unable to go to therapy, you should ask yourself why you're unable to accept the divorce. Did you blame yourself? Are you idealizing the life or home that you had before the divorce? Has your parents' divorce impacted your ideas about love and/or your ensuing romantic relationships? Whatever it is, figure out the answer and then work on logically breaking down your subconscious reasoning. I've been to therapy and gotten these techniques from my therapist, but I'm not a therapist and I still recommend seeing a real therapist. In any case, best of luck!
He's not blind
Damn same! My parents divorced 10 years ago. Still haven’t gotten over it.
Same My parents also got devorced 8 years ago I'm enjoying my freedom
