Primer (2004) is a thought-provoking science fiction film that follows the story of four engineers, Aaron, Abe, Robert, and Phillip, as they work on a secretive invention in Aaron's garage. This project consumes all their free time as they struggle to overcome numerous engineering challenges. When conducting tests on the invention, Abe makes a shocking discovery that a protein within the machine has multiplied at an unprecedented rate. Intrigued by this unexpected phenomenon, Abe decides to experiment on himself.

As Abe delves deeper into his self-experimentation, he realizes that the invention has the power to manipulate time. This realization leads Aaron and Abe on a mind-bending journey as they use their invention to navigate through various temporal loops and alter events from the past. As they continue to experiment with time travel, the consequences of their actions become increasingly complex and convoluted.
