Synchronic

In the humid pulse of New Orleans, a city where the line between celebration and danger blurs with every street‑car passing, two lifelong friends patrol its alleys and emergency rooms. Steve, a womanizing paramedic with a reputation for bending the rules, works side‑by‑side with his devoted partner Dennis, whose steady presence keeps them grounded amid the chaos of a city that never sleeps. Their bond is forged as much by shared jokes and rivalry as by the relentless pressure of a job that thrusts them into the heart of strangers’ crises at a moment’s notice.

When a series of bizarre incidents begin to surface, each linked by whispers of a new designer drug called Synchronic, the duo finds themselves drawn into a mystery that feels both clinical and otherworldly. The drug’s reputation for producing inexplicable effects spreads through the city’s underbelly, hinting at something far beyond a simple substance—a hint of altered perception that unsettles the already fragile balance of their lives. The atmosphere grows increasingly surreal, as the neon glow of the French Quarter collides with an unsettling, almost scientific dread.

Against this backdrop, personal stakes rise. Steve discovers an unsettling health scare that forces him to confront his own mortality, while Dennis wrestles with the strain on his family and the fear that his world is slipping out of control. Their professional dedication becomes a personal quest, each man questioning how far they will go to protect those they love and to uncover the truth behind the drug’s strange influence. The film’s tone blends gritty urban realism with a creeping, speculative unease, inviting the audience to wonder what lies beneath the city’s vibrant surface and how far the bonds of friendship will stretch when time itself seems to warp.
