In a time far in the future, time travel has become widely available to all civilians from the comfort of their own homes. The ability to visit future events in history, or past memories from your life is possible, however you are prohibited from interacting with those from the past. A bubble of time exists around the viewer, allowing them only to observe, without being seen or heard by those around them.
Evelyn, 17 years old and enthralled with the stories of the past, is a frequent flyer through time, experiencing and learning about the world through the centuries she visits.
She finds herself in New York, circa 2019, watching the crowds bustling by trying to hurry to their job interviews or business meetings, completely mindless of the world around them. Amongst the sea of black suits and brown trench coats, a pair of sun kissed hazel eyes meet her gaze. He's looking right at her, but how is that possible?
