a search for night on a planet that never sleeps

THE CITY DARK chronicles the disappearance of darkness. The film follows filmmaker and amateur astronomer Ian Cheney, who discovers an urban sky almost completely devoid of stars. Posing a deceptively simple question—“What do we lose, when we lose the night?”—the film leads viewers on a quest to understand how light pollution affects people and the planet. THE CITY DARK shines new light on the meaning of the dark. It is a MUST SEE!
