12 Seconds To Forever
Seeking solitude on a windswept coast to mend a broken heart, a writer named Evan finds his quiet retreat persistently interrupted by Lucas, the charming and cheerful nephew of the local lighthouse keeper. With the steady sweep of the lighthouse beam marking time, Lucas's daily "deliveries" of household items — and relentless good-nature — begin to breach the walls Evan has built around himself. It's a story about finding an unexpected connection in isolation, and discovering that the rhythm you need might not be the silence you sought, but a steady, recurring light in the dark.
