Tells the story of a skeptical scientist, Alice, who falls for the reluctant medium Jay in an odyssey of love, loss and discovery that will turn her world upside down. Alice is a scientist who likes facts. Jay is a reluctant spiritualist. They meet in a pub in the ancient city of York just before Christmas and bond over a love of David Bowie in the movie “Labyrinth.” With some prompting from a seemingly possessed digital display board at the train station, Jay decides to spend Christmas with Alice (and the benign entity she shares her home with). So their relationship begins, yet Alice has doubts about Jay’s metaphysical skillset. The next Christmas is spent in the Lake District, where Jay is haunted by a strange premonition. The third Christmas is a sorrowful yuletide, in which Alice faces all her doubts and opens herself up to the realization that it may indeed be possible for spirits to communicate from the spiritual realm. A festive triptych love story with a sprinkling of magic realism, “Between the Lights” addresses the mysteries of the cosmos and the question of life after death.
