It gave me a feeling like I am reading something from the world of HP Lovecraft. The black and white tone and scientific approach accentuated that feeling. The story line is intriguing. The performances were superb. It would appear midway the film that you have guessed the story right. However, I suggest you hold on your conclusions till the end. There have been a lot of stories around time traveling. In most of the stories, some protagonist will travel back in time to change one or many things. This film, however, gives a short and simple message. Something that the three-eyed raven says to Bran Stark in Game of Thrones, "The past is written, the ink is dry.."

The time travel subgenre features traveling backward or forward in time, often resulting in characters encountering alternate timelines, paradoxes, and the potential to alter history. These stories delve into the complexities of causality, the nature of reality, and the philosophical implications of manipulating time.

The sci-fi genre, short for science fiction, features imaginative and futuristic concepts that are often rooted in scientific principles, technology, and possibilities. These stories delve into "what if" questions and can serve as a platform to address contemporary social, political, and ethical issues by projecting them onto future or alternate settings.

The short form refers to creative works characterized by their brevity and concise storytelling. Unlike full-length feature films, short films have a running time of less than 45 minutes, while TV shorts have a running time of less than 22 minutes.
