New York Premiere
Documentary Feature | USA | 2025 | English | 89 minutes
While women were once considered bad luck at sea, marine biologist Dr. Edie Widder built her career investigating the mysteries of the ocean. A trailblazer as the first woman in her field, Widder led the effort to understand and record deep-sea bioluminescence, the phenomenon that allows life to survive in the darkest parts of the ocean. A LIFE ILLUMINATED blends archival scenes from the pioneering dives that launched her career with breathtaking new footage from her latest feat: descending 3,300 feet beneath the ocean’s surface to make a discovery that could change how we understand life on Earth.
