In a restless city where every streetlight flickers with the residue of untold stories, Jimmy lives a modest life that belies the turmoil inside him. Gifted—or cursed—with a restless clairvoyance, he can glimpse fragments of the future, a talent he has learned to monetize through low‑stakes wagers on sports. Yet the gift is a double‑edged sword; a childhood vision of his mother’s sudden death left him convinced that the strands of his own destiny are already woven, and that free will is an illusion.

That conviction is shattered when a new, disturbing premonition shows Jimmy his own demise. The image is sharp, relentless, and it ignites a frantic need to uncover who is behind it and why. Haunted by the feeling that every decision might already be written, he is forced to confront the gnawing question of whether he can ever truly alter the course laid before him. The urgency of his quest turns ordinary moments into a ticking clock, each heartbeat echoing the looming shadow of that fatal future.

Amidst this internal storm, Angela appears—a stranger whose brief encounter offers a fleeting glimpse of ordinary connection. Their chance meeting becomes a cornerstone of his desperate search, pulling him into a network of relationships that are as layered and secretive as the city itself. Old acquaintances and new faces hint at a world where loyalty is uncertain and every smile may conceal a hidden agenda. Their interactions inject both tension and a fragile hope, suggesting that the answers Jimmy seeks might be tied to the very people he least expects.

The film unfolds as a gritty, atmospheric thriller that blends noir‑like visual grit with a pulse‑quickening psychological edge. It asks whether knowledge of a possible future is a burden too heavy to bear, or a catalyst for change. As Jimmy races against an ever‑tightening deadline, the audience is drawn into a maze of secrets, dread, and the haunting question: can one truly rewrite destiny when it feels already etched in stone?
