Meet Patti Channer, Executive Producer for the highly anticipated documentary film“Hearing Is Believing”, from award-winning Producer/Director Lorenzo DeStefano who introduces us to the astonishing young musician and composer, Rachel Flowers.  This supremely talented musician lost her eyesight due to Retinopathy of Prematurity and at just two she began picking up melodies from her musician parents and was soon playing every song she heard by ear, including Bach fugues.  Rachel is pitch perfect and many corroborate this in the film including: Stevie Wonder, Dweezil Zappa, two-time Grammy nominated jazz pianist, Taylor Eigsti, the late Progressive Rock icon Keith Emerson, Hawaii ukulele master Benny Chong.  Rachel’s story is unique and she depicts the significance of determination, resiliency and how vital family and community are in shaping this remarkable musical genius. http://www.hearingisbelievingfilm.com/main/  NYC primere at Cinema Village with audio description and Q&A post screenings with film creators and more: https://www.cinemavillage.com/
