Abstract

Don’t Look Away follows 35-year-old Corey who has lived with a facial difference as long as he can remember. He wants to find love, he wants to move out of his childhood home, he wants to get his first book published and he'd love to get a job writing for the WWE (World Wide Wrestling Federation). Don’t Look Away explores how his unique look has affected his ability to live “a normal life” and challenges viewers not to judge a book by its cover.
