5 Minutes Ahead

Arga, a troubled student burdened by regrets and bullying, seeks help from Dr. Adrian, a therapist with a mysterious past. During their session, Dr. Adrian reveals a secret: a prototype of augmented reality glasses from his time at Visiontek that can predict events a few minutes into the future. Arga eagerly accepts the glasses, hoping to change his life.

Testing the glasses, Arga impresses his friend Farhan by predicting traffic patterns and successfully standing up to a bully, Fikri. However, his newfound confidence leads to risky decisions, including attempting to cheat during an exam. When the glasses malfunction at a critical moment, Arga faces suspicion and confusion from those around him, leaving him questioning the reliability of the tool and his own choices.

The film ends on a cliffhanger, with Arga left pondering the consequences of relying on technology to navigate his life.
