There is Light

About This Movie

There's a rawness to 'There is Light' that really sticks with you. Saori, the protagonist, takes on a job that most wouldn't even consider, serving as a call girl for disabled clients. The film dives deep into the lives of people with varying disabilities—each meeting feels distinct, yet there's this thread of humanity that connects them all. It’s a slow burn, but not in a dragging way. The pacing allows you to really sit with the characters and their stories. I found the performances quite compelling; they feel very genuine, almost too real at times. The atmosphere is a blend of somber and hopeful, a reflection of the complexities of human connection and fragility. It's definitely not your run-of-the-mill drama.
