2026 · 147 min · ★ 5.0 · Science Fiction, Romance

It all starts on a subway with an unexpected meeting between Hyeon-sik and Ji-yeon. Ji-yeon claims their world is a fabrication—a literal stage set. She speaks of "errors,"strange glitches where time seems to loop and people freeze in their tracks like broken dolls. Amidst this programmed reality, only the "Trumans" possess true agency. As Ji-yeon continues her lonely crusade to find others like her, she leaves Hyeon-sik with a haunting question: "Are you one of the Trumans?"
