    An intriguing exploration of a metropolis where time is manipulated by unseen forces. The film presents a world that challenges the very notion of reality, engaging with themes of determinism and free will. Its narrative complexity and philosophical underpinnings are commendable, though the execution occasionally leans towards the esoteric, which may detract from its accessibility. Nonetheless, it's a commendable piece of science fiction that merits consideration for its intellectual ambition.
