It seems the production of Star Wars is in financial dire straits and need help from local population to light up the sets in Dubrovnik. We are kidding of course, but there is truth to that last sentence. It seems the owners of the properties on the main street in Dubrovnik got a memo from the production house asking them to leave the all their lights on during filming of Star Wars Episode VIII in Dubrovnik.

As reported by DuList who came into possession of one of those memos, the home owners whose homes are basically on the set (overlooking the Main Street) were asked to leave the lights on through the night as long as filming goes on. Why exactly did they make this request is unclear, but it is probably going to be beneficial for the lighting of the set.
