Description
A man lives out his existence on a tiny lighthouse island, surrounded by nothing but the sea. For years, he has been supplied with provisions by a weekly boat, yet the fishermen never leave their vessel and never meet him. As a result, his life has become something more than just solitude - it has become a unique experience shaped by his imagination. One day, however, a new boatman arrives on the island, bringing with him an unexpected presence that challenges the lighthouse keeper's way of life. This poignant story explores the complexities of human connection and the power of everyday moments to transform our lives. Through its tender, humorous, and often despairing tone, Alone reveals the beauty in being alone and the importance of finding meaning in our own company.
