Why watch this film?

Winner of the 2004 Sundance Film Festival and made with a minuscule budget, 'Primer' is an example of independent cinema at its best: fascinating, intelligent, entertaining, and challenging, without requiring visual gimmicks to grab attention. Written, directed, and co-starring Shane Carruth, it is a film that truly delves into the implications of a scientific discovery like time travel, the experience and consequences of it.
