Being Kylie Earle
Kylie suffers from a rare genetic disease called Neurofibromatosis which from birth affected her left eye. She has never been able to see from it, as she got older the plexiform tumors caused her eye to be removed. Against odds Kylie, a bubbly 16yr old is a high performing athlete, a back spotter in the Texas Elite Cheer team. While facing crippling mental blocks and battling low muscle tone because of her condition she preserves in a sport that favors not only physical aesthetics but requires precision, strength and flawless technique. This film is her story so far.
