This film delves into the origins, beliefs, and artistic style of Norwegian black metal, a musical subculture notorious not only for its distinctive sound and imagery but also for a series of murders and church burnings. It stands as the first and only documentary to genuinely illuminate a movement previously cloaked in mystery and distorted by superficial portrayals. Through exclusive interviews and candid moments with the musicians, along with a treasure trove of rare footage from the early days of the “Inner Circle,” “Until the Light Takes Us” thoroughly examines every facet of this provocative movement that has captivated global attention. This is the film that penetrates the minds and souls of black metal’s artists.
