35 MM - Mikhaiah

One year after losing Aida to time, Micah Andrea Lim has learned to live with her absence. Remaining in the present Cebu City, she spends her days wandering familiar streets with Aida's camera slung over her shoulder, capturing fragments of a world that feels emptier without her. Though life continues around her, grief lingers in every photograph, every quiet café, every place that still carries traces of the woman who vanished back into 1959.

Then, against all impossibility, Aida returns.

But the woman who finds her way back is no longer untouched by time. After being pulled into the past once more, Maria Aida Arceta spends decades searching for a way back to Micah, chasing impossible theories, fractured timelines, and worlds that should not exist. With every failed attempt to return, reality splinters further, leaving Aida burdened with memories of lives she cannot distinguish from her own.

As Micah and Aida struggle to rebuild the life they lost, strange distortions begin surfacing around them-photographs changing overnight, unfamiliar memories bleeding into reality, and moments that feel as though they belong to another lifetime entirely. The deeper Aida searches for the truth behind what happened to her, the more unstable their world becomes.

Caught between love, memory, and the terrifying consequences of rewriting time itself, Micah must confront the possibility that the woman she fought to get back may no longer belong to just one life-or one version of reality.
