Darktable Tutorial - Recovering Shadows and Highlights in a Dark Scene

Welcome to my new Darktable Tutorial - Full Edit: Recovering Shadows and Highlights in a Dark Scene.
Check out FocusPoint Linux, a new Linux distribution for Photographers! focuspoint-linux.org/
In this video I we are going in deep, we are focusing on recovering highlights and shadows in a dark, but high dynamic image.
A few of the modules we are focusing on in this video is:
- Tone Equalizer
- Filmic RGB
- Local Contrast
- Color Balance RGB
- Color Calibration
This image was shot during "blue hour" (after golden hour) as such it is naturaly dark and probable best viewed on a monitor or a TV.
