The Ark

Short Film Non Union
Atlanta
Synopsis:

The Ark is a sci-fi time travel drama about a man who journeys into the past to stop the affair that destroyed his family. In 2041, E.B. is still haunted by the suicide of his wife, Grace, who died after discovering his betrayal. Determined to rewrite history, he travels back to 2025 to kill Jaguar—Grace’s sister and the woman at the center of it all. But in the past, E.B. comes face to face with his younger self, Eric, just as Eric is being pulled toward the very mistake that will define their future. What unfolds is a tense and tragic story of desire, self-destruction, and the impossible dream of correcting the past.
