A FAMILIAR FEELING. AN UNFAMILIAR TRUTH.

What if déjà vu
was a way back?

A reporter investigates a machine that lets people experience another moment in their lives. For Maya, the discovery becomes something deeply personal.

This is the prelude. A rough first film, and the beginning of a world with more stories to tell.

HOW THIS STARTED

An idea that wouldn’t go away.

I build apps. During Covid, I had an idea for a film. Some spare Google Cloud credits—and the time spent waiting for Claude Code and Codex agents to finish—eventually gave me a way to make a rough version.

It’s made with AI, and there’s a lot I want to improve. Better performances, better scenes, perhaps a version with real actors. For now, this is somewhere to watch it take shape.
