"Under the Lights" Advanced Movie Screening


Under the Lights is the award winning story of Sam, a boy with epilepsy, so desperate to feel like a normal kid, he goes to prom knowing that the lights will make him have a seizure. Cinema has historically stigmatized and ignored people with epilepsy. A demographic of 1 in 26 who have almost never been represented authentically on screen, and suffer from brutal stigma every day. Written and Directed by filmmaker with epilepsy, Miles Levin. Under the Lights is a story you haven’t seen before. First a short, now a full feature in post production, regarded as one of the highest profile moments in epilepsy awareness history. The film stars Pearce Joza, Tanyzn Crawford, Lake Bell, Randall Park and Nick Offerman. Following the screening, stay for an exclusive live Q&A with director Miles Levin, where he’ll share the inspiration behind the film, discuss his creative process, and answer audience questions about his experience living with epilepsy. Whether you have a personal connection to epilepsy or simply appreciate impactful documentary films, this special one-night event promises an evening of inspiration, education, and meaningful conversation.
