I Didn’t See You There: Review. By Richard Schertzer.

Reid Davenport unveils a personal and quite unique documentary. You might wonder how someone différent from you sees the world and how they interact with other people. This documentary may answer some of your questions.

The film sees disabled filmmaker Reid Davenport making a documentary so that people see what his view of the world truly is. He goes through his life with a disability and talks with friends and family, letting them in on his film as he goes from place to place and audiences look at his daily struggles with his current circumstances.

Davenport is able to use a simple space with his personal camera and say so much while doing and having so little with his limited equipment. While many documentaries are expected to have incredibly high budgets, landscapes and equipment, Davenport is a professional at the old DIY idea and has proven that you don’t need a lot of equipment to make a thought-provoking documentary.

Its themes of loneliness and disability are prevalent and Davenport uses the film as a platform to help other disabled people feel seen and heard in a world that takes them for granted all too often.

In all honesty, some of the scenes in the film might drag for far too long and may linger for more than what it’s worth, but that isn’t really much to complain about when you are doing something out of solidarity.

All in all, this film has spunk, heart and revolutionary charm. I recommend.
