A Morning Light, released in 2015, is an enigmatic and introspective film that explores the idea of time and memory through a surreal and dreamlike lens. The movie tells the story of an American traveler named Zach (played by Zach Weintraub) who finds himself caught in a mysterious and unsettling scenario in an unnamed foreign city.

The movie starts with a shot of Zach wandering around the city, exploring its various nooks and crannies. He is seen observing the people, their cultures and getting engrossed in the intricate details. He then meets a woman named Sarah (Celia Rowlson-Hall) who also seems to be as lost as he is in the city. The two forge an immediate connection and decide to spend some time together. As the day goes on, strange and unsettling events start unfolding around them. Sarah begins to act strangely, and Zach starts experiencing inexplicable moments of déjà vu, blurring the line between reality and fantasy.

The backdrop of the city in the film is beautifully captured, giving the impression that the city is the film's lead character. The streets seem eerily quiet, and everything looks surprisingly washed out in the daylight. The city provides a perfect setting for the existential drama to play out.

As the night grows darker, the film takes on a more intense and mysterious atmosphere, with Zach and Sarah getting increasingly estranged from one another's company. Sarah becomes increasingly preoccupied with her own thoughts, while Zach seems to be struggling to unravel the mystery that surrounds him.

Austin Will plays the role of a nameless stranger who interacts with Zach in a few scenes. He appears to be more aware of the dark secrets surrounding the city, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the story.

The film's pacing remains deliberately slow, and there are long sequences with no dialogue, adding to the dreamlike quality of the film. At certain times, the pace may feel a bit dull, but throughout the movie, the tension builds up, leaving the audience to wonder and question what will happen next.

The movie's director, Ian Clark, masterfully creates an atmosphere of surrealism that evokes a sense of mystery and uncanniness. His direction is remarkable, as he takes the audience on a journey into the strange and unsettling depths of Zach's mind.

A Morning Light is a film for those who enjoy abstract and surreal storytelling. The haunting visuals, coupled with the excellent performances, create a film that stays with you long after viewing. The film's themes of memory, time, and nostalgia provide the audience with plenty to ponder long after the credits have rolled.

In conclusion, A Morning Light is a mesmerizing and introspective movie that takes the audience on a journey through a dreamlike world of surrealism. A superbly made film that pushes the boundaries of conventional storytelling and captures the imagination of anyone who dares to follow its winding, mysterious path.
