When the city forgets your name

The night is not empty.

Afterlight follows Mara Venn, a radio archivist who hears a voice inside a lost broadcast — a voice that knows what happens next.

With one night to trace the signal back to its source, Mara moves through the last illuminated corners of a city preparing to go dark. What begins as a search becomes a reckoning with the memories we preserve, the ones we distort, and the moment we decide to be seen.

Three ways into the dark

Made for the in-between.

01

Atmosphere

Rain on glass. Sodium light. A city rendered in the language of memory.

◒
02

Frequency

An original score that lives somewhere between a heartbeat and a warning.

∿
03

Aftermath

A mystery that asks what we owe to the versions of ourselves we leave behind.

✳

The people behind the signal

A story is never solo.

Built by a small, exacting team with a shared instinct for beautiful tension.
