The life and times of a clipper lighter- Series

As we all know, holding on to a lighter before it runs out is virtually impossible… especially a Clipper! How many interesting, dark, seedy or down right crazy people’s hands does it go through in its life from being bought off the shelf to when it runs out of gas?... These stand-alone stories will depict the very different lives and personalities of the characters, however, all of their worlds intertwine just once by being in the same place at the same time to one of the other characters in the series in order to find, borrow or deliberately pocket the lighter. This is a series of separate short stories, partly filmed in the perspective of the Clipper (shot from the P.O.V. of the lighter with a fish-eye lens - cutting with conventional shots and lenses) driven by either a narrative or music or both.
