_____________

When accused of stealing his father's lighter, Billy's journey to set things right takes an unexpected turn as he stumbles upon a mysterious VHS tape hidden within his father's possessions. What unfolds before his eyes is not just a glimpse of his own future, but a chilling mirror reflecting the very footsteps of his father's life, from love to loss and the inevitable march towards mortality. Faced with the unnerving prospect of his own predetermined fate, Billy grapples with the ultimate choice: to succumb to the echoes of his lineage or forge a new path, challenging the cyclical nature of destiny itself.
