Darkest Light
The crowd-funded, independent debut feature film of writer-director Floris van Gaalen makes great use of Wellington locations and a solid local cast, headed by Mark Hadlow as a detective who is victimized after his wife is inexplicably found dead in his own home.
Jaded law-enforcement colleagues and a crafty lawyer attempt to scratch out the truth, while a hard-drinking psychic medium bends this crime procedural into the mystical realm.
“Floris Van Gaalen’s atmospheric and assured debut feature (expanded out from his 2019 seven-minute short of the same name) is very much a crime-drama in the spirit of recent small-screen TVNZ tales like The Gone and One Lane Bridge.” ~James Croot, Waikato Times
