Produced on a low budget, with a small digital video camera, Painting with Light
in a Dark World embraces the gritty, raw, edgy aesthetic of the urban wilderness
in which it is shot.
The skeletal structure of the film is Peter's Darren Moyle's journey towards his first solo photographic exhibition.
The perspective of this documentary is one of creative vision and unique achievement in the face of deprivation and adversity. Effectively, Peter Darren Moyle's story represents a triumph of the human spirit. And his antics - such as stealing electricity for his enlarger from streetlights are mostly heartwarming, inspiring and amusing. It is his unshakable sense of humour, absolute fervour for photography and unconditional love for life that has kept him buoyant when swamped by tragedy.
