On a barren, storm‑lashed island, fishing families survive on summer catches and winter wash‑ups, but recent scarcity threatens them. Elders recall that twenty years earlier, when the lighthouse beacon failed, a cargo ship shattered on the cliffs, providing a windfall for the fishermen. Now islanders view the lighthouse keepers with distrust and hunger.
