The Nines

In a world where three seemingly separate lives echo one another, the film weaves together a tapestry of parallel narratives that blur the boundaries between creator and creation. Identical actors inhabit each storyline, and a subtle, recurring motif hints at an unseen thread that binds their realities. The tone is both contemplative and unsettling, inviting the audience to question how stories shape identity and how perception can fracture the very fabric of existence.

Gary is a once‑promising actor who finds himself confined to a stranger’s house, his days marked by a peculiar bracelet and an obsession with a mysterious numeral that seems to follow him everywhere. As he navigates the uneasy companionship of a public‑relations handler and a neighbor whose attention feels both comforting and disquieting, his isolation becomes a fertile ground for introspection, suggesting that the limits of his physical space might be far more porous than they appear.

Gavin, a television writer, is caught in the throes of bringing a new pilot to life. While juggling the demands of an exacting executive and the creative fire of his loyal friend‑turned‑lead actress, he senses the same enigmatic number flickering on the periphery of his thoughts. The pressure to mold his vision into something marketable collides with an instinctual pull toward authenticity, hinting that the line between scripted narrative and lived experience may be thinner than anyone realizes.

Gabriel is a celebrated video‑game designer whose journey takes a sudden turn when a broken‑down car forces him into a remote wilderness. Accompanied by his family and a stranger whose motives are inscrutable, he begins to glimpse the existence of multiple, overlapping universes. The experience subtly urges him to confront the weight of his own creative power, leaving the audience with a lingering sense that each choice might ripple across an unseen multiverse.
