Stay Tuned

Seven days. One desk. The last TV station in the country.

By day, you run the vision desk of the last local TV station in a small country. You cut between cameras, bleep the swearing, roll the ads, and keep the picture on air while your producer shouts in your ear and a government censor watches from the booth. By night, you go home to your family and listen to your own broadcast on the kitchen radio.

Then the war starts, on air.

What you do
Direct the live broadcast. Cut to the right camera, bleep banned words, tune out interference, and fill every second. If nothing is on screen, that's dead air.

Decide what the country sees. When the feeds fail and the sirens start, you get seconds to choose: the official line, a frightened man telling the truth, or the canned-food jingle.

Go home. Share a meal, talk to your daughter, pack a bag, and listen to your day's broadcast come back through the radio, with your family reacting to what you put on air.

Live with what you aired. Every choice carries forward. The shopkeepers, the neighbours, and the people who call in remember what you did, and your family sees it too.

A note on content
Stay Tuned deals with war, censorship, and a family in danger. Nothing violent is shown on screen, and strong language is bleeped.
