Apple TV is the platform for movies, series and documentaries of the brand itself, and which increasingly has a more extensive catalog of its own productions that we will not be able to see anywhere else, as is the case of the one they bring to us today.
This is a very emotional documentary, which will even make us cry, so if you are sensitive to this type of content, it would be best not to watch it. However, if you like documentaries, it will be one of the best that we can watch on Apple TV.
Premiere of Hug Me in the Light
The documentary can now be seen on Apple TV Hold me in the light (Come See Me in the Good Light), which Apple acquired after its premiere at the Sundance festival. The film follows poet Andrea Gibson, who After receiving a diagnosis of terminal cancer, he decides to live each day with awareness and fullness.
Directed by Ryan White, the documentary shows Andrea's life with her partner, Megan Falley, as they face the inevitable together. What makes this work special is how it combines very real and hard moments (doctor visits, chemotherapy, difficult conversations) with the humor and tenderness that permeate their relationship. It is not a documentary that seeks to move at any cost; rather, it celebrates life, reminding us that happiness is sometimes found in the simplest details and accepting our vulnerability.
The documentary received the “Festival Favorite” audience award at Sundance in January 2025, reflecting the connection it creates with those who watch it. Andrea died in August of the same year, but the final cut of the film does not focus on her death; On the contrary, he invites us to celebrate the life he lived, his moments of laughter, love and authenticity.
