A gentle sleep story for grownups. Close your eyes and let the story carry you to a place of comfort and rest.
Tonight, we follow Starling, a woman who has lived in a small apartment on the top floor of an old brick building for eleven years. She knows every crack in the plaster, every squeak in the floorboards, every angle of light that comes through the windows at different times of day. But there is one thing her apartment does not have, one thing she has wanted for as long as she can remember: a view of the sky. Not the sliver of sky between buildings, but the real sky, the deep sky, the sky that holds the moon and the stars and the slow, patient drift of clouds. Tonight, we watch her give herself the most beautiful gift she has ever known.
00:00 Welcome and settling in
03:00 Starling's apartment and her life in the city
10:00 The memory of lying in the grass at her grandmother's house
18:00 The idea takes root
25:00 Research and preparation through winter
35:00 Meeting Vera the contractor
45:00 Spring arrives and the work begins
60:00 The skylight installation
75:00 The first night under the glass
90:00 Watching the seasons change through the skylight
105:00 Quiet reflections and deepening rest
120:00 The world above, the warmth below
140:00 Drifting toward sleep
160:00 Soft landing and goodnight
