A group of young scientists work at a frantic pace to complete their invention but their efforts start demonstrating interesting side effects. From their work in a small cottage industry of error checking devices they are forced to confront the fact that they have discovered something too valuable to market. As they explore the potential of their machine, they are caught in a frantic loop to second guess themselves.

Rian Johnson stated that not only is "Primer" (a film which cost around $7000) the best time-travel movie ever made, but that it was his friend Carruth who advised him about the mistakes on the time travelling scenes of the "Looper" script.
