Hi Rhisis,

I am currently attempting to download a full DVD9 of this movie to share. It has original audio and subs in English. Hopefully, someone will be willing to seed it to me.

I have found a few torrents here:
https://www.btdig.com/search?order=0&q= ... r+of+light

Some appear to be 1080p and DVDrips, and may have original audio. I am trying them out now, too. Unverified for the time being, though.

I am ABSOLUTELY interested in the DVD9 that pillowbaker is trying to get!!!

In the meantime, here is a list of what I have found and what I have verified. I already PRE-composed the post so even though it repeats information, I am going to post it as is! It mostly overlaps with the files found by ghost, Rhisis66, and pillowbaker. I am NOT listing the fully dead or mostly dead torrents. I watched the DVDrip that I am sharing in my RELease.

MyDramaList synopsis, credited to CrunchyRoll-
(I could NOT find the video at CrunchyRoll, but I am not a member.)
A young teacher has some good ideas about teaching, but he finds himself up against Japan's regimented and conservative school system. As a class project he decides to raise fireflies. Through the project his students become united and end up cleaning up a local river so the fireflies will have a home.
https://mydramalist.com/4877-hotaru-no-hoshi

This excerpt from an IMDB review convinced me I *HAD* to see it, so I watched it right after downloading. (No plot spoilers.)
Spoiler:

Hiroshi Sugawara who directed this film was offered a part in "The Last Samurai" starring Tom Cruise. He rejected the part to make this film. When he approached people to get the film made, they asked him if it had a love interest, he answered that the only love scenes were the fireflies. They asked if there was any action, to which he answered there was no action. They then asked, how long would it take to make and his answer was he needed 12 months so he could capture all the seasons. They thought he was crazy but thankfully someone saw the potential and the film was made.

Hey it worked! Someone kindly seeded the DVD9 to me steadily over the day. I sent them a cigar.

It works great, has perfect English subs and original audio. Will post soon!

Thank you Night for all the download options and subs.
