“Shed Some Light” By I.M.
Identity runs deeper than skin. See differently.
Inspired by true stories, Shed Some Light is an intimate exploration of vitiligo, a skin condition that is largely misunderstood and often leads to prejudice and the exploitation of those it touches. Drawing upon Lee Thomas’ powerful TED Talk about his experience with the disease, the film portrays the courageous journey to self-acceptance and boldness through one's own internal light.
