The Time Travelers

The central timeline is set in AD 2071, a post-nuclear-war Earth where survivors live underground with androids and a space program. The scientists attempt to rebuild the time portal in hopes of returning home, while mutants threaten the fragile community. A brief calibration sends the travelers to a date more than 100,000 years in the future, before the team races to escape back through the portal. Time behaves in accelerating cycles, culminating in a dramatic, cyclical finale.

The story begins in a high-security laboratory where a time-viewing device is tested and consumes huge power. When the portal destabilizes, the scientists retreat into a cave that opens into an underground city, the last remnants of civilization after nuclear war. The future setting shows a barren Earth with androids assisting residents as they prepare a spacecraft to reach Alpha Centauri. The action shifts between the lab, subterranean habitats, and the edge of interstellar exploration.

⏳ Time Travel

Time travel drives the plot, forcing characters to grapple with the consequences of calibration errors and the moral weight of altering history. The portal’s instability traps them in unfamiliar eras and creates a race against their own aging. The story uses time shifts to explore causality, repetition, and the fear of being unable to return to normal life.

🌍 Survival

Earth has become a harsh, resource-scarce environment after nuclear devastation. Survivors rely on advanced technology, androids, and a future-space program to endure and seek a new home. Mutants emerge as a desperate threat, highlighting the fragile balance between civilization and extinction. The narrative centers on protecting food supplies, energy, and hope for a fresh start.

🧪 Science Ethics

The scientists push the boundaries of experimentation to rescue humanity, risking power overloads and unintended consequences. The film questions whether scientific ambition justifies possible harm to the team and broader civilization. Calibrating the portal becomes a test of responsibility versus curiosity, with the fate of many hanging on their choices.
