Darryl has made three films as writer-director-producer. The first, called "Dearly Departed," is a fictional documentary shot as if the crew took a camera into the afterlife and interviewed the spirits of people who've passed on to get their insights on life after death. The second film, a unique documentary called “First Contact,” explores how channeling works and the potential impact of ET contact on our society. The third film, “Alienated” is a sci-fi romance distributed internationally by Indie Rights Movies on Amazon, Vimeo, and Tubi TV among other platforms. In addition to writing scripts, Darryl has written two published sci-fi novels in an ongoing series called “Shards of a Shattered Mirror,” available at darrylanka.com.
