There are so many reasons to watch a film. One is to see how characters interact in hostile settings. The thing that we normally know is what the external or internal forces are. In this case it is a device that a couple guys create which has elements of a time machine. How it is made and the scientific concept that is employed is a mystery to us. This film is more about what happens to the inventors when they get to the verge of success. The machine becomes an overwhelming element of the status quo that begins to cause a rift in the relationship. We are never sure what is going on exactly, but we know that it is deadly serious. There is a disintegration that is put in motion that changes the joy of discovery to an unwillingness to take the wraps off. What are the practical applications? I don't know.
The film is obviously low budget and has a bit of that Blair Witch feel to it with a narration over it. This may be a bit of a weakness. Nevertheless, if this film was really done for $7,000, it is a masterwork. It is highly provocative and unsettling. I need to give it another chance. Did I not get it or is that the whole point.
