Try a Effect > Video Filters > Image Control > Levels if you are on FCP. The controls are a bit odd to get used to at first, but experiment and you will get it. There a bunch of other filters to try as well, but this one attacks your problem directly.
Bottom line is that if the black in your image no detail at all, there will be no information a filter to work with.
When you attempt these corrections, watch your work on the output monitor it is destined for. An NTSC monitor will look very different than a computer monitor. Make your corrections for the format your audience will see.

You may also try duplicating the clip to the layer above and making the one on top an “additive” mode. Then adjust opacity to re-expose the the clip.
Hope this helps-
