Christian Kilian, one of the child stars of our soon to be released independent film, Light, was interviewed by ABC News almost a year ago as part of a story on people who suffer from albinism and the tragedy that afflicts albinos in Africa, where they are killed because of a superstition about magical properties in their skin. Well, the show is finally going to air on ABC’s 20/20, tonight at 10pm, 9pm Central. Find more details on ABC’s website, and check your local listings for the episode you don’t want to miss! Light was written and directed by Marty Wisher.

Light is set in the not too distant future and centers around a Lucas, boy born with hypopigmentation (Oculocutaneous albinism) who discovers that along with his rare appearance, his birth also granted him developing “super powers” that aid him and his genius best friend, Jake in navigating the often troubled waters of high school. Unfortunately, as with many gifts, there are those who desire to exploit Lucas’ unique situation for their own nefarious ends. Caught in the middle is Jake & Lucas’ science teacher, Mr. Gunther, a former defense contractor, who has a unique understanding of the value of Lucas’ powers.
“Light” is written and directed by local actor-writer Marty Wisher and starsChristian Kilian, Danny Rawley, Keegan Shayne and long-time character actorRick Michaels. In creating the film, Starlight Productions committed to utilizing wholly local talent, from the actors and actresses, all the way through post-production, special effects and crew. Many of the talent pool was drawn from the local chapter of United Film & Television Artists (UFTA)
The work on Light has also caught national attention, due to a growing problem of mistreatment of people with hypopigmentation in Third World countries.
