Once upon a time on Staten Island at Cape Horn, an adventurer of modern times…
His name: André Bronner, niknamed "Yul"

Inspired by the book of Jules Verne "The Lighthouse at the end of the world" he travels to Staten island at the end of "Terra del Fuego" (Land of Fire) at the extreme southernmost part of Argentinia if the lighthouse mentioned in the book really exists or is création of the author.
He discovers the ruins of a lighthouse built in 1884 and abandoned twenty years later.

He gets lost on this isolated island. For five days without food, in jeans and sneakers in the snow….. But he manages to survive!

The following year, he came back to live in total solitude for several weeks in this totally deserted and savage land and discovers the ruins of the lighthouse.
This is when our adventurer gets the ambitious idea to have again shine the light of this lighthouse for the vessels navigating at the end of the end of the world.
