“I feel like I'm breaking into pieces. 
Disconnected from my body 24 hours a day. 
Never whole. 
Never complete. 
Never one. ” 

We believed technology would solve the problem of communication, a phone in our pocket would make our lives simpler,  social media would make relationships easier. 
This was not the case. 
TIMER tells the story of 3 young people trapped in an ever-faster and more complex communication, where we delude ourselves into thinking we understand one another, 
yet we are growing ever further apart. 
Is all this technology really helping us to be better people?
