Light of My Life
Director: Casey Affleck (“I’m Still Here”)
Cast: Casey Affleck, Anna Pniowsky, Tom Bower, Timothy Webber
Details: Though one of the more acclaimed actors of his generation thanks to celebrated performances in the likes of “The Assassination of Jesse James” and “Manchester-by-the-Sea,” actor Casey Affleck is more known for scandal in the past year or so in the wake of the #MeToo movement and the reveal of multiple allegations of sexual harassment against him – much of it tied around his first directorial effort with the 2010 documentary “I’m Still Here”.

This marks his second turn behind the camera, a post-apocalyptic survival thriller in the vein of “It Comes At Night” and “Z for Zachariah”. Here he plays a father of a young daughter who both become trapped in the woods after a deadly pandemic radically alters the world. As the father struggles to protect his daughter’s innocence, shielding her from the newfound dangers of man, their bond is tested. Already shot early last year, talk of the film has effectively been radio silent for many months with no word on when it might get a release despite being pre-sold in many territories.
