Synopsis
Zoya Lowe, a brilliant physicist, discovers that a black hole is expanding inside her chest. To try and change her fate, she takes time-travel pills that allow her to relive the last five days of her life over and over again. With the help of Paula, a young researcher, she explores the limits of free will and the possibility of rewriting her own story.

Blending intimate drama with speculative sci-fi, Omni Loop delves into time paradoxes, entangled narratives, and the mysteries of quantum-like logic.

With its time loops and circular narrative, Omni Loop resonates with the spirit of the Quantum Year. The film freely explores ideas such as time reversibility, multiple realities, and the interdependence of events — echoing the 2025 festival theme: “Interwoven”.
