Six miles east of nowhere, on a stretch of road most people pass through without stopping, the Blue Lantern Diner stays open.

It isn't busy. It doesn't need to be.

The people who arrive do so for reasons they rarely explain?long drives that went on too long, conversations that never happened, losses that refuse to stay buried. The coffee is hot. The lights hum. Time behaves strangely inside the diner, loosening its grip just enough for memory to surface.

When a stranger takes a seat at the counter and begins asking the wrong kind of questions, it becomes clear that the Blue Lantern is more than a place to eat. It is a threshold?between past and present, truth and avoidance, the life that was lived and the life that might still be reckoned with.

The Blue Lantern is a quiet, atmospheric mystery about ordinary people standing at the edge of confession. Told with psychological restraint and noir sensibility, it unfolds not through action or revelation, but through what is withheld, misremembered, and finally faced.

This is not a puzzle to be solved.

It is a reckoning to be witnessed.
