Thank you to Sunrise Animation Studios for the trust and partnership in bringing this project to life — and to Tim Keller and Dave Walvoord for the countless hours perfecting every frame.

Special thanks to directors Phil Cunningham and Brett Dawes for sharing David’s powerful story with the world.

It’s been a privilege for AfterDark Post Production to provide the grading and finishing on this remarkable film. We’re excited for its theatrical release this Christmas, December 19th.

Congratulations to Brandon Purdie and the entire Angel Studios team on bringing such a meaningful story to audiences everywhere.

A special thanks as well to Phil Cunningham and Brett Dawes, the directors, for sharing the powerful story of David with the world.

It’s been a privilege to provide color grading and finishing services through AfterDark Post Production on this remarkable project, and we’re beyond excited to see it reach theaters this Christmas, December 19th.

Shakespeare’s timeless story of revenge is reimagined as a modern psychological thriller. The classic tragedy transcends the stage through a unique, contemporary lens.

Had the absolute pleasure of colour grading this film while I was in London. So happy to see it’s finally out.
