Sparks in the Night Short Film (2010)
Watch the short film Sparks in the Night. Set in a black, white and red 1940’s, Sparks in the Night humorously follows detective Leon Sparks as he closes in on notorious lawbreaker, the Jerry Walker and the Speeder Brothers. Working with a cast of fellow eighth-graders, the 13-year-old director encapsulates the mood, moral ambiguity, menace, and fun of the grimy city.
