The year is 1200 A.D. Dark days indeed. Days when misbegotten Crusades and a desperate Church have laid a pox over the land. Days when law is meted out by fast swords and well-regarded superstition. Days when only the treasure-seeker and cutthroat dare to venture underground, into places where even God has taken leave. Into the maelstrom a Twilighter shall lead. He is a professional illuminator, a creator of magnificent tools. He is a man who can transform any dark passage into the glow of twilight. But something is awaiting the Twilighter, something too ancient and powerful for human hands. It might enlighten the world. Or be a cog of the apocalypse. Time is ticking. Other agents are on the hunt. World history is at stake. Prepare to be taken YONDER … Amir Barda was born in 1975 in a small town near Tel Aviv, Israel. His earliest memories are watching cherished movies. At the age of 16 he enrolled in Alon High School for the Arts, home to a top-flight film program. His love of film consumed his life. Devoting all his time and energy to film class, Barda’s other studies began suffering. He was eventually expelled. Barda realized school wasn’t going to help him achieve his dream of creating films. In 1993 Barda was drafted into the Army and served three years. Refusing to put his dreams on hold, he created a short film while on weekend passes. Told through a series of flashbacks, “Painted Black” is the story of four friends who learn about one another during a game of cards.
