HARRISON JONES is a writer and film-maker currently studying an MA in Scriptwriting and living in Bath, Somerset. He studied Film at Falmouth University where he made his directorial debut, My Brave Face, which premiered at the Homegrown Shorts Film Festival 2026. His other credits include co-writing the award-winning short Golden Years and working as a trainee script supervisor on Mark Jenkin's latest feature, Rose of Nevada.
Starring are two incredibly talented and experienced actors:
JORDAN MIFSÚD is a London and New York trained actor passionate about telling bold, human stories that connect. A selection of his screen credits include Netflix’s The Siege of Jadotville, ITV’s The Bay, Hulu’s The Looming Tower, and most recently starring opposite Mawaan Rizwan in the award-winning short Blackout. On stage, he’s performed at some of London and the UK's most renowned theatres which include The National Theatre (The Silver Tassie), Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre (Pride and Prejudice), multiple Orange Tree Theatre productions, and most recently as the Shakespearean villain, Cloten, in Cymbeline at Shakespeare’s Globe. Having trained at the prestigious RADA in London and AADA in New York, Jordan brings heart, commitment, and authenticity to every project — and with your support he can continue creating and championing meaningful, independent work.
RACHEL REDFORD is an award-nominated RADA trained Welsh actress whose work spans some of the most influential stage and screen productions in the UK and internationally. Rachel has appeared in major global television series which include HBO's House of the Dragon, Netflix's Shadow and Bone and Gap Year for Channel 4. Her film credits include Testament of Youth and The Riot Club. She has established herself as a compelling stage presence performing at London's leading theatres including the Donmar Warehouse (Closer), the Royal Court Theatre (Adler & Glib) and the critically acclaimed Young Vic and West End production of The Jungle which transferred to New York's St Ann's Warehouse. Rachel brings with her a track record of working within high-profiled and internationally recognised productions, combining classical training with contemporary relevance. Her involvement signals both artistic integrity and proven industry credibility - qualities that align strongly with ambitious globally positioned independent film projects.
Not Dark Yet is a moody, atmospheric sci-fi psychological thriller exploring the dangers of modern technology and the complex power dynamic between corporation and employee. Set largely within a remote hotel, the film aims to deliver a tense, cinematic, and emotionally resonant experience designed to engage and challenge contemporary audiences. A gripping story about the dangers of our increasingly symbiotic future — where technology and mortality collide, and capitalism quietly shapes our fate.
