Once a year, lovers meet within an ancient rocky landscape, a secret place of ritual. Margaret's character embarks on a journey to reunite with her light being, transfixed by his light forms and healed by his mystical powers, silent and still, they embrace in a dance of love and loss. The result is a spectacular, beautiful story that is simultaneously familiar yet alien, a tale told only the way that Khan could tell it. #lightbeings #ditaworld Main Credits:                                                  'Light Beings' Written & Directed by:              Natasha Khan Girl:                                          Margaret Qualley Boy:                                         Jamie Strachan Production Company:              Lief Producer:                                 Margo Mars Music by:                                  Bat for Lashes with Bobby Krlic ABOUT DITA WORLD DITAworld is a celebration of design that finds beauty in purpose; craft that celebrates the unseen; and culture that transcends convention.  ABOUT NATASHA KHAN Natasha Khan is a director, singer / songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and visual artist, best known for her musical incarnation Bat for Lashes, one of the most unique British songwriters of the last decade.
