Through the Night is both celebration and indictment. A sympathetic depiction of 'women's work,' in all its unsung dignity, it's also a quietly damning portrait of a merciless economy's effect on working-class mothers — particularly black women and Latinas, who often must work taking care of other people's children in order to feed their own.” — The Hollywood Reporter

In addition to making movies, Loira Limbal is the Senior Vice President for Programs at Firelight Media, a premier destination for non-fiction cinema by and about communities of color. Firelight films have garnered multiple Primetime Emmys, Peabodys, and Sundance Film Festival awards and they provide mentorship and support programs for emerging filmmakers of color.
