Project Description

“Come See Me in the Good Light” is a profoundly intimate documentary that follows celebrated poet Andrea Gibson and their spouse, poet Megan Falley, as they navigate the emotional and artistic complexities of Gibson’s terminal cancer diagnosis. Directed by Ryan White and produced by Tig Notaro, the film captures the raw beauty of their relationship, contrasting Gibson’s deeply emotive spoken word performances with Falley’s more structured, intellectual approach to poetry. Through humor, honesty, and poetic brilliance, the couple shares their journey with striking vulnerability, offering a testament to love, resilience, and the human spirit in the face of mortality. A standout moment sees Gibson reflecting on their desire to support Falley even after they’re gone, highlighting the film’s central theme of enduring love. Premiering at Sundance 2025 and winning the Festival Favorite Award, Come See Me in the Good Light is not just a film about illness but a celebration of life, creativity, and the power of connection. Our team was honored to provide the VFX for the entire production, enhancing the film’s visual storytelling to complement its deeply personal and poetic narrative.
