Act 1: The film opens with news footage of the 2017 Fidget Spinner craze. This footage is full of montages and news reports of how popular the items became until the reports get deafeningly loud then cut to the main character walking down the street.

Max, the main character, is walking down the street, just minding his own business when he sees a regular looking fidget spinner on the ground. Now obviously he's heard about the craze and is not going to pass on the opportunity of a free one so he picks it up and starts spinning. As he spins the fidget spinner backwards, he sees the people on the street begin to walk and talk backwards. He then realises that this fidget spinner has the ability to rewind time depending on how hard/long he spins it for.

We then cut to Max (the character)'s face as his expression changes from confusion to glee. Then follows a montage of the character using the fidget spinner for incredibly mundane tasks such as re tasting food he has just eaten again, rewinding rather than re loading from a last save on a video game, knocking down a drink and re winding rather than picking it up, buying a scratch card, seeing he hasn't won and re winding rather than living with paying for it. Meanwhile, serious  accidents and events are occurring without the character knowing. While Max is playing the game, his neighbours are arguing and it turns violent, rather than intervening, he rewinds the checkpoint and turns up the volume of the game so he can't hear the violence; in doing so. When re tasting the food (Chinese Takeout while walking down an alley) Max is about to be mugged by a shady looking guy in a hoodie. Max has tasted to food so many times that he gets too full and just throws the remainder of the food behind him, hitting the mugger in the head and stopping him in his tracks. When knocking down the drink and re winding to move the drink to a different location, Max accidently stops it from hitting electricity preventing him getting shocked. Finally, when buying the scratch card and re winding, Max bumps into a guy on his way out (as he leaves earlier this time because he doesn't buy the card) this guy is shown robbing the place before max rewinds, this time not doing so as Max bumps into him and he drops his gun, immediately being tackled to the ground buy a passer by.

Ending 1:

After these montages, we cut back to Max at his home looking bored, unable to think of anything fun or useful to do with his new device. Being bored, and not the smartest person in the world, Max spins the fidget spinner backwards as hard and as fast as he can, not focusing on the world around him changing, instead rather just focusing on the blades of the spinner as it twists and whirls right before his eyes. We then cut to a long shot of max as his body slowly turns (along with the camera) from that of a teenager to one of a child to one of an infant in a series of different images all spliced together. Finally, the film ends with Max as a baby sat in his adult clothes.

Ending 2:

After the montage, we cut to Max going to bed at night, he leaves his window open, placing the fidget spinner next to the open window. Later in the night, the wind picks up, we cut to the fidget spinner being spun faster and faster by the wind. Max wakes up in a panic realising that he has messed up, he rubs his eyes while going to close the window. However, there is no window anymore, Max is laying in the middle of a forest, his house has gone. He spun too far back. A dinosaurs roar can be heard in the background as we cut to black.
