Aria Mia Loberti ’20 Stars in Netflix Series

All the Light We Cannot See premieres November 2 on Netflix. 

Aria Mia Loberti ’20 has the lead role in Netflix’s limited television series adaptation of Anthony Doerr’s Pulitzer Prize-winning 2014 novel, All the Light We Cannot See, which will be released on the streaming service on November 2. The series, directed by Shawn Levy, also stars Mark Ruffalo and Hugh Laurie.

Loberti, a newcomer to acting and longtime advocate for people with disabilities, has been sharing her struggles as a blind person on other stages—such as the Rhode Island State House, the United Nations, and the TEDxURI stage—for many years.

Loberti plays Marie-Laure, a blind teenager in Nazi-occupied France during World War II who meets a German soldier, Werner, as they try to survive the war’s devastation.
