The Sight Unseen
Shawn Antoine II is a filmmaker from Harlem, NY, whose journey in storytelling began with editing youth football footage, a skill that evolved into a calling. After playing collegiate football and studying public relations at the University of Rhode Island, Shawn produced SHOWTIME, a short film that confirmed his path in filmmaking. The film, which screened at over 50 festivals and aired on Magic Johnson’s ASPIRE TV, cemented his passion for cinematic storytelling. Currently, he is pursuing his Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Documentary Media at Northwestern University, continuing to refine his voice as an artist.
The Sight Unseen is a hybrid film revisiting the miraculous events of 1971 in the Bronx, when Sharon, a local woman, discovered a glowing cross in her apartment window. This extraordinary phenomenon drew crowds from across the community, becoming a moment of collective awe and curiosity. Now, 53 years later, Sharon shares her vivid memories of that time, providing a deeply personal lens on an event that has lingered in the hearts of those who witnessed it.
