Dylan River in ‘Tales by Light’.
When Tales By Light director/producer Abraham Joffe first got in contact with Indigenous director and cinematographer Dylan River to ask if he would be involved with the show, River initially thought he wanted him to shoot it.
However, the Tales By Light team wanted River in front of the camera; he is the subject of one of the episodes of season three, which launched on Netflix Australia this week after a run on Network 10 last year.

“I met very young children scavenging on floating rubbish dumps and polishing metal bowls in extremely unsafe factories in order to survive,” said Orlando Bloom. “Not only are these children in danger of injury or exploitation, they are missing out on going to school and the chance of a brighter future.
