THE BUZZER by Jessica Syposz. Lina can't stop listening. Her favourite radio station only transmits a single, eerie buzzing noise. The sound makes her feel safe. The more she listens, the easier it is to forget the world around her, or to feel like it's even real at all...'The Buzzer' is a surreal journey into obsession and our desire to be part of something bigger than ourselves.
Starring Radhika Aggarwal. Sound Designer and Producer Paul Dodgson.
