00:00In front of the camera, Tom explains how his wife killed herself on the day of their wedding, then shares the whole story that happened a few months ago.
00:08Tom and his girlfriend, Eva, read the ad for a company called Project Millennium, which is looking for marriage couples for a research study.
00:15It will last 30 days and pay $ 50,000.
00:19Eva points out that Tom will have enough time to finish his book, and the money will allow them to finally start a life together.
00:26In fact, they are not married, so they agree to lie.
00:29Before the meeting with the scientists at the interview, Tom discovers that he bought a ring and invites Eva to get married after the experiment.
00:36Eva also notices that the ring has engraved numbers 9 through 23, so Tom says it was the day she stole his heart.
00:43Then a couple meets with the director, who explains that he is studying the phase of the honeymoon and why she feels sick in the end.
00:50He also mentions that statistically more marriages will fail because only special relationships can overpower biology.
00:56The director was once married, but unfortunately his wife died when she was young.
01:01Her death inspired him to start this study.
01:04Tom and Eva lie and say they are married for a month, and then they are interviewed separately.
01:09The contrast in their answers is quite clear, but they also show love for each other.
01:14A little later, all the couples selected for the study gather in the facility.
01:17Tom is obviously nervous, although he is sure that he wants to do it, he mentions that they should have a word of assurance in case one of them wants to leave the experiment at any moment.
01:26Eva agrees and chooses 9 through 23 as her word of assurance.
01:31Then the director announces the beginning of the experiment, and the couples are separated by the fact that the men and women leave through different doors.
01:38Then Eva gives the injection that puts her to sleep.
01:40When she wakes up, she is on the bed with Tom, and they both wear the clothes that the company arranged for her.
01:45She wakes Tom up, and together they explore the house, surprised to see a hologram in the living room.
01:50It is the mediator who allows the detective to check their condition without disrupting the results of the study.
01:56He asks them to put headphones that record their possible failures whenever he discusses his experience.
02:01After testing with simple questions, the mediator tells them that they can contact him at any time through the device on the table, and he disappears.
02:08Now the couples are free to explore the house.
02:11They find an old gramophone and play music on the dancefloor, and sing in the living room.
02:15They check the kitchen and find a futuristic dispenser that brings them any food or drink they want.
02:21They also unpack the only bag they were allowed to take, because they bought gifts for the occasion.
02:28Eva also brought cookies that were seasoned with stimulants, and Tom's notebook so he could continue working on his novel.
02:35Cameras are everywhere, but unfortunately their phones have no signal in the house.
02:39Also, there is a very nice order for Tom to work in peace.
02:42In the evening, he asks the janitor to bring them various things just for fun.
02:46Then he sets the fireplace and brings champagne to the couch to watch a movie on the screen that rises from the coffee table.
02:52After that, they go to the bedroom and cover the camera with their clothes so they can be simple.
02:57Eva reminds Tom to wear protection, and when they start, Tom is rougher than usual.
03:01After she finishes, Eva is quite shocked, so Tom talks to her and comforts her.
03:06On the third day, a couple watches a movie in which the protagonist is giving birth.
03:09Seeing the baby on the screen, Tom suggests that they have a child, but Eva immediately rejects the idea because she doesn't think they are material for parents.
03:15On the eleventh day, he decides to try out cookies with a friend.
03:18Eva immediately screams for one, but Tom spits it out, even though he tried it before.
03:22To let him go, Eva goes to prepare a drink, and when she returns, she finds Tom chewing.
03:27When he starts acting, the couple decides to play hide-and-seek,
03:30and when Eva chooses a sunny room, Tom pushes the door so hard to make a hole in the wall.
03:35He hides behind the box for a while, but in the end he comes out, so Tom is terrified.
03:39Then it's Tom's turn to hide, and while Eva counts, he hears a strange sound, and then someone shouting for help.
03:44He rushes to the entrance, and is shocked when he sees one of the other spouses from the project crying,
03:49and begs them to let him in, because the husband is trying to kill them.
03:52Eva tries to open the door, but they are locked, so she starts waving the camera and also shouting for help.
03:58At that moment, the husband appears, hits the woman with the head from the door, and carries her body.
04:03By the time Tom gets to the entrance, the people are gone.
04:06He asks for a conversation with the director, who appears as a hologram,
04:09and tells the crying Eva that they checked the system and that all the other couples are fine.
04:13He even showed her a video of Eva in front of the camera, but there is no one outside.
04:18Tom admits to the director that they took stimulants for the keys, and that it caused a hallucination.
04:23However, Eva cannot sleep that night, because she still feels that it was real.
04:27The next day, Eva takes medicine for a headache and throws it at the other cookies.
04:32Tom asks for a little time off, but Eva rejects him and asks him to work on his book.
04:36Later, he sits at the table and Eva works on her designs, but Tom does not write anything.
04:41Instead, he starts talking about children again, ignoring Eva's requests for silence.
04:45She bursts and begins to point out all the problems she has to solve in her life before she even thinks about having a baby,
04:51like the fact that he wants to live off writing, but has not written anything since the beginning of the study.
04:56Eva promises that if she finishes the book, she can even consider the family.
05:00With hope, Tom goes to the office to write.
05:02A little later, Eva visits Tom in the office and shows him the covers she designed for his book.
05:07Tom admits that he has not made any progress, which surprises Eva, because usually a day without writing can not pass.
05:12He begins to doubt whether this should be his career, but Eva encourages him not to give up his dream and remembers that she fell in love with his passion.
05:20Later, Eva goes to sleep, but on the way to her bedroom, she hears a voice saying,
05:24Don't believe Tom.
05:25When she turns around, she is surprised by Tom, who asked her to spend the night with the missing people.
05:29However, Eva now feels strange and decides to go to sleep.
05:33On the 14th day, Eva looks at some of their pictures and Tom remembers how he loved that trip.
05:38However, Eva points out that it was a design task and that she added it to Photoshop.
05:42Tom wonders if she's okay, because she didn't want to be intimate with him lately.
05:47But Eva convinces him that she is simply not in the mood.
05:50In the evening hours after Tom went to sleep, Eva called the mediator, because it was a voice that told her not to believe Tom.
05:57The mediator says that Tom is not the man Eva thinks he is, and admits that according to the records, he did not expect that the couple would last the first week.
06:04Before the mediator can say more, the call ends.
06:07That night, Eva can't sleep, so she goes to the office to check what Tom had written so far, but she falls asleep on a visit that shows his love for her.
06:15Tom finds her, and Eva decides to ask if she is playing with him, discovering what the mediator said.
06:20She also asks him if he really ate a cake, because he was usually the one who has bad decisions after that.
06:26Tom is angry and accuses Eva of not believing him, implying that they should break up.
06:30Eva's father says that he believes him, but he feels that things are not right since they entered the house and that the mediator has worsened it.
06:37Tom points out that this is probably part of the test to break them up, and he claims that he would never lie to her, which causes Eva to hug him and talk to him.
06:45From then on, Eva decides to keep a positive attitude and starts decorating the house with Christmas decorations.
06:50When the mediator tries to talk to her, Eva only covers the hologram light to get her out of their lives.
06:56The next time he looks in the mirror, he notices that she has gained weight.
07:00In the meantime, Tom has written a lot in his order, and when Eva finishes decorating, he rewards him with a bad weather in front of the fireplace.
07:07However, as soon as he kisses her, he asks her to stand up and push him away, saying that his kisses feel different.
07:13Tom continues to kiss her to prove her wrong, and will not stop when she begs him to bite him in the mouth and causes him to push her down.
07:20The next few days, Tom tries to convince Eva that everything is fine, but she does not believe him.
07:25Until the 20th day, all of her illustrations become extremely terrible.
07:29That night, Eva wakes up when she hears a noise from a hole in the wall and looks through it to discover Tom talking to the mediator.
07:35Tom says that Eva does not believe anything and that he is not stable and asks for help for her.
07:40The mediator announces that he will prescribe a mild sedative.
07:43Angry, Eva runs to the living room, and Tom says that the mediator rang, but Eva points out that she never heard the bell, and Tom does not wear headphones.
07:50He also goes to the dispenser and finds the sedative, throwing it at the mediator when he mentions that he did not check them every day, and accuses Tom of treating her like a crazy person.
07:59After he tells Tom that the mediator is manipulating them, Eva leaves angry with Tom.
08:03That night, Eva feels bad and runs to the bathroom to return to the toilet.
08:08Remembering that she was getting fat and constantly wet, Eva calls Tom and tells him that she is tired.
08:13Tom is very happy, but Eva panics, wants to go and talk about their options.
08:17Just thinking about the possibility of stopping the difficulty makes Tom angry and starts hurting Eva, calling her a bad mother and asking her to hide her one depression because of Božić.
08:27Scared, Eva adjusts.
08:29On the 25th day, the couple exchanges gifts.
08:32Tom is excited that he got a movie on Blu-ray, but Eva runs to hate that movie and buy it as a joke.
08:38Eva gets a hair curler that she doesn't really like.
08:41When he tries it in the bathroom, he gets frustrated and throws it in the trash.
08:44Later, he joins Tom on the couch, accusing her of not trying.
08:48He also wants to talk about the baby, but Eva deceives him by asking him about his book.
08:53As a result, Eva argues that Tom does not act like him, but that Tom just goes for more chicks.
08:58Eva takes the opportunity to call the mediator and ask for help, but the mediator says that he can only observe and cannot intervene.
09:05Crying, Eva admits that they are not married and that she is somehow struggling for 6 months, but the mediator only replies that Tom is cheating on her and disappears.
09:12Desperate for answers, Eva goes to read Tom's notebook, and to her shock, the only pages of the novel are those he wrote before entering the house.
09:20Everything he wrote here is not his story, but an incredibly long list of names for the baby.
09:25Eva goes to meet Tom, who says that he could not write because Eva pressed him.
09:30Angry, Eva shouts at him and throws the notebook before leaving.
09:34Later in the bathroom, Eva frustratedly knocks on the garbage can and finds all the protective measures they used.
09:39She took out all the tubes for disinfection, and when she checks the goods, she discovers that Tom deliberately pierced the holes.
09:45He also sees the hair dryer and gets the idea.
09:48A moment later, Eva calls Tom to take a bath together.
09:51He pours wine while they play Never Have I Ever, and Tom makes a mistake when Eva says that they were never married.
09:57He admits that he knows about his relocation, that he works hard and mentions 9x23 several times, but Tom doesn't realize it.
10:04Upset, Eva goes to the kitchen and steals the knife she hides when Tom comes to take her to bed.
10:09In the bedroom, Eva hides the knife under the pillow and tries to sleep.
10:13But Tom starts touching her, even though she rejects his hands.
10:17Tom remembers that they are married and that he should fulfill his duties as a husband, so Eva cuts him with a knife in the hand before he tries to escape.
10:24Angry, Tom grabs her hair and throws it on the bed, but Eva hits him with her foot and runs to the bathroom, locking the door.
10:30Then he takes the hair dryer, which was heating up all the time, and puts it in his private area.
10:35The pain is unbearable and can't push him deep enough to kill the baby as she wanted.
10:40Angry, Tom breaks the glass on the door and falls in, and throws the hair dryer in the tub and causes the electricity to go out.
10:45Then he warns Eva that if she ever tries to find the baby again, he will kill her.
10:50As the electricity returns, the director appears to finish their stay, because they obviously don't make it.
10:54Scared by Tom's reaction, Eva convinces him that it's okay, so the director allows them to stay as long as Eva takes her sedatives.
11:01When Eva asks what happened to the mediator, the director says that he is released.
11:05Later, Tom surprises Eva with a special dinner, but they don't allow him to have a knife for cutting food.
11:10In fact, all the kitchen knives are hidden.
11:13Then he forces her to dance with him, and Eva asks where Tom is, because this is obviously not him.
11:19Tom ignores the question and kisses her, so Eva uses the opportunity to beat him several times with a fork.
11:24As Tom falls, Eva grabs a knife from his meal and runs to the hole in the wall, which she expands to go inside.
11:30Walking through the narrow hallway, Eva finds the door and goes out to the research facility.
11:34When she hears that someone is coming, she enters the bedroom and finds a group of sleeping women who look exactly the same.
11:40On the big screens, all the couples from the project are placed under the map of memory, and the woman from the bed is classified as a clone.
11:47In the corridor, there is a leptir that flies around it, known by the approach of genetic memory.
11:51At that moment, the guards and the director find Eva, who admits that she cloned Tom,
11:55and that the real Tom is used to complete the filling of the void in the clone memory.
11:59It was previously impossible to map the brains, so he started this experiment to work with multiple clones at once and perfect the technique.
12:06Eva wants to see the real Tom, and when the director rejects her, she wakes up one of the women and holds the knife like a father.
12:12It turns out that the director has cloned his wife and is trying to perfect the technique to bring her back permanently.
12:17He also uses the mapping of her brain as a mediator.
12:21Following the threats of Eva, the guards leave their weapons and throw one at her, and one guard goes to bring Tom.
12:27While the director is trying to talk to his wife, Eva realizes that the woman does not know that she is a clone and tells the truth.
12:33The red wife tells the director that she does not love him anymore.
12:36Then the guard returns Tom, who finally reunites with Eva again.
12:40Eva opens fire and kills the director, the wife's clone, and all the guards.
12:44Then a couple tries to escape, but when they come to the walker, they find another Tom, and both men accuse each other of being a clone.
12:51Both are bleeding, so Eva kisses the one next to her and feels that something is wrong.
12:56As she withdraws, both Toms say 9x23 and begin to count everything they know about her.
13:01Eva does not know who to shoot, and instead threatens to kill the baby.
13:05One Tom tells her to do it, while the other says she shouldn't, so Eva kills Tom who said no.
13:10Suddenly, Eva starts bleeding down there, and Tom has to take her out.
13:14A couple runs away, but Eva loses the baby.
13:16When they come to 9x23, they happily get married.
13:19In the middle of the month, they begin to be intimate, but Eva is terrified when she sees the baby and notices that this one is also awake.
13:25She tries to push Tom away, but he grabs her by the neck and strangles her to death, saying he loves her.
13:30When he realizes what he has done to Tom, he tries to resuscitate her without success.
13:34To cover up his crime, he uses torture to make it look like she did it herself.
13:38Returning to Tom who tells the story in the present, he cries while he says he does not understand why Eva did it, because he was a perfect husband.
