A Shadow's Glow
In the dark lands, Senka, a being of shadow, spends his days as a mindless killing machine, devouring spirits of light that he comes across. This all changes when he meets Uri, a young spirit of light who sees the best in him. Realizing the error in his past actions, Senka vows to return Uri home to the land of lights.
Logline: In a world where light and shadow are personified, a creature of shadow must journey across his dark homeland to return a young spirit of light back to his home. On his journey, he must battle the elements, his own people, and his instincts as a creature of shadow.
Director's Statement (Josh): The story of A Shadow’s Glow was created to showcase the journey that people may take as they pursue their dreams and aspirations. No matter what obstacles stand in your way or whatever the outcome may be, to keep pushing forward to reach that light at the end of the tunnel: a dream. This is also why the style of the film was chosen. Having such concrete and contrasting ideas and visuals was perfect for showing how one may go against the grain and achieve their goals. While this is just one interpretation, I hope that audiences find their own meaning and inspiration from our film!
Director's Statement (Cole): A Shadow’s Glow is about growth. We all have these different sides of us: a dark shadow that hangs behind us but also protects us from the paths ahead and a light inside of us that guides our wonder. Life in a nutshell is about the bonding of these two sides. They come together in contrast to make each other brighter so that maybe, eventually the shadow can glow. We wanted to incorporate those themes into the style of the film having a sharp, hard world that reflects our main character juxtaposed to the roundness of Uri. It’s about how these shapes change, and I hope the audience can see that growth within themselves and the film.
