The passionate story, narrated by Colin Farrell, of a young Irish filmmaker tragically diagnosed with motor neurone disease (ALS) yet fiercely determined to continue his career.
Simon Fitzmaurice was 34 years old, his short film had just premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, and his third child was on the way. When doctors gave him just four years to live, Simon, his wife Ruth, and kids took an intended six-week trip to Australia and stayed for six months. Seven years later, Simon's lost all mobility, and can't speak or breathe without artificial help. Ever defiant, he plans to direct his debut feature. Using eye gaze technology and a computerised voice, Simon finishes his script, finds supportive producers, crowd funds, storyboards and auditions. The outcome of his dogged persistence is an inspirational feature, My Name is Emily, screening in the Festival's Screenability program.
The very definition of a documentary crowd-pleaser. – Dennis Harvey, Variety
It's Not Yet Dark is far from a tragedy. [Director] Fenton and Fitzmaurice embrace the inspirational aspect of it all completely and unapologetically. It's the kind of thing that could have turned into clichéd life lessons, but they resonate here. When Simon says, "For me it's not about how long you live, it's how you live," it's difficult not to nod in agreement. – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
