A journalist digs deep into the world of aviation and discovers some uncomfortable truths. And a conspiracy trail dating back to 1954. But why is no one saying anything?

The film is based on actual events. World renowned, investigative journalist Helen Eastman returns to the UK after a disastrous assignment in the Middle East and takes a new job at a local paper to be closer to her air traffic controller boyfriend, Joe Forbes. Rather than be happy that she has finally given up her high profile career to be closer to him, he is despondent having been suspended from work following a serious JASP Air in-flight safety incident on his shift. The incident is not released to the public, triggering Helen’s instinctive journalistic curiosity to ask. Why not?

“A Dark Reflection succeeds in delivering a densely plotted narrative in which the hero turns the ignition key, wondering if it is the last thing she will ever do. Film works best as an ambitiously produced documentary which will prove fascinating to anyone who follows the Darwinian and technical world of aviation industry politics.” – Britflicks.com

“There aren’t many films that come from the heart to this extent.” – Talking Pictures

“You may not want to fly again after seeing this film, for A Dark Reflection reveals some disturbing truths about airline safety that may cause you to have many sleepless flights. The opening sequence of this investigative thriller is beautifully crafted, grabbing your attention by symbolically taking your breath away, and signposting the events to come.” – Movie by Mills
