‘There Are Lights’ written and directed by Nadia Emam, produced by Candle & Bell, has premiered at BAFTA qualifying festival Leeds International Film Festival.
The film was shot in March 2021 on location in Whitby, North Yorkshire. Shot during lockdown due to the Covid 19 pandemic, the shoot was particularly challenging, so to premiere at such a prestigious festival feels even more rewarding than usual. Congratulations to all the cast and crew!
