©A Light in the Darkness
Well, I received an email from one of the films producers a while back but for one reason or another, I couldn't clear a block of time to sit down and watch the film. Man, I wish I would've watched it sooner. Any issues you have with the film should easily be overlooked due to the extraordinary effort put into the sets, costumes, and SFX. This is easily one of the best Star Wars fan films out there. Enjoy!
A Light in the Darkness is a Star Wars fan film made for the love of filmmaking and of course, Star Wars. It has been an exciting and challenging experience to make a high quality, low budget film. This project was possible thanks to the talents and time of our all volunteer cast and crew. The film in its completed form will be released on September 20th, 2011.
