In Time

In a sleek yet stark future, humanity has turned the very passage of time into a literal currency. Each person’s remaining lifespan glows on a digital clock embedded in their forearm, ticking down with every transaction, every heartbeat. The system creates a sharp divide: glittering districts where the affluent hoard centuries of life, and sprawling, shadowed zones where the poor scramble for minutes just to survive the next day. The society’s pulse is a constant reminder that every second counts, lending the world an urgent, almost metallic rhythm that feels both futuristic and intimately personal.

Will Salas lives on the edge of this clockwork world, a young factory worker who has learned to stretch every hour into a fragile hope. A chance encounter gifts him an extraordinary reserve of time, catapulting him from his gritty neighborhood into the glittering corridors of the privileged. Suddenly thrust among those who have never known the sting of a dying clock, he confronts a reality where wealth is measured in eternity and the rules of life feel deliberately stacked. His innate curiosity and quiet defiance begin to clash with the polished calm of the elite, setting the stage for a clash of values as stark as the contrast between the districts themselves.

It is here that he meets a captivating heiress, Sylvia, whose own position within the upper echelons gives her a unique perspective on the system’s cruelty. Though raised amid excess, she senses the emptiness behind the endless years and is drawn to the idea of challenging the status quo. Their unlikely partnership hints at a blending of street‑wise grit and aristocratic insight, promising a tension‑filled alliance that could reverberate through every tick of the city’s clocks. The film’s tone balances sleek, high‑tech aesthetics with a gritty undercurrent, inviting viewers to wonder how far two people from opposite worlds will go when time itself becomes the ultimate rebellion.
