Three O'Clock is a 2005 film written, directed by, and starring Glen Chua, with Alexandra Caldwell, and George Amoako. The special effects in this film were perfected over a course of four months. Although rejected from the BC Student Film Festival, the film went on to be selected for the Edmonton International Film Festival and the Calgary Hot Shots Film Festival where it received top prize.
The film centres on a disillusioned main character named Calvin Hopes, who describes his "time travel" experiences while staying in a mental institution. Calvin describes to his doctor about how his desperate attempts at saving his wife Tessa Hopes were futile, and tries to understand the meaning of life through tragedy. Along with stylish effects, the film is heavily based on the idea of a temporal paradox.
