Concept 02
A man maintains a lighthouse that has been automated for years. Every night he still turns it on manually. The signal is not for ships. It is for his dead wife.
Concept 03
A city where everyone’s phone buzzes at the same time, once a day. One man’s phone stops. People start looking at him differently.
