Light in the Dark is a cinematic insight into the world of Michelle Mansell, a cold, open-water swimming coach. Through her work Michelle gives people an effective way of regaining mental and physical health and shifting their perspective on how the world around them can heal. We encounter this activity at night; when people are most amenable to experience this interplay of physical invisibility and intensity. The film is a pertinent reminder of how effective the natural world around us can be in recovering from trauma and counteracting some of the damaging effects of modern life. It does this through beguiling images and a sensitive and informed narration.
