The Lightkeeper

2026 · 101 min

A quiet, windswept drama of sorrow and slow reawakening, carried by restrained performances and the lonely rhythm of the sea.

Overview: The Lightkeeper is the story of a lighthouse keeper stuck in a cycle of grief and the three people who change the course of his life: the housekeeper who quietly yearns for him; the beautiful American war widow whose quest for closure ignites something in him; and the hard-line priest, who starts a battle of wills with a man who has nothing to lose.
