What if fitting in came at the risk of your own safety?

Under the Lights tells the story of Sam, a teenager living with epilepsy who just wants to experience life like everyone else — even if it means hiding what he’s going through.

Written and directed by Miles Levin, who lives with epilepsy himself, the film has become part of a larger movement to challenge stigma and bring more authentic epilepsy stories to the screen.
