ONE MINUTE

ONE MINUTE
By Bobby G

GENRE: Thriller / Suspense
LOGLINE:

An ordinary IT worker stumbles upon a hacked app that predicts the future sixty seconds ahead, but when he uses it for quick riches and small thrills, he sparks a deadly chase involving government agents and foreign spies—forcing him to outwit the world’s most dangerous players one minute at a time.

SYNOPSIS:

Thirty-two-year-old Daniel Cruz lives an unremarkable life: bland IT job, empty apartment, and a quiet obsession with hacker forums he browses after work. One night, curiosity leads him to an encrypted thread where he downloads an experimental app that claims to use AI, CCTV feeds, and predictive behavior models to forecast the immediate future. At first, he thinks it’s a hoax—until the app correctly shows him a car accident sixty seconds before it happens.

Thrilled, Daniel begins experimenting. With just a one-minute edge, he wins at casinos, outmaneuvers office rivals, and even pulls off slick stock trades. The rush is intoxicating. But Daniel’s newfound luck doesn’t go unnoticed. Soon he’s pursued by government agents who want the technology contained, and by foreign operatives who’ll kill to control it.

As the net tightens, Daniel must stay one step ahead in increasingly creative ways—using his sixty-second foresight to dodge assassins, manipulate chases, and even play enemies against each other. But the more he relies on the app, the more he realizes it doesn’t just predict the future—it shapes it. If Daniel wants to survive, he’ll have to decide whether to keep using the power or destroy it before it destroys him.
