In the movie "2067", the world has been devastated by climate change, and humanity is on the brink of extinction. The company Chronicorp has created a time machine called the Chronicle, which can transport people to the future. The main character, Ethan Whyte, is recruited by Chronicorp's CTO, Regina Jackson, to travel to the year 2474 to find a cure for a fatal disease that is killing the remaining humans.
Ethan is initially hesitant, but eventually agrees to go, hoping to save his wife, Xanthe, who is suffering from the disease. He is accompanied by his friend Jude, who is revealed to be working for Regina.
In the future, they find that the world has been restored to its natural state, but humanity is extinct. They discover that the time machine's battery is depleted, and they must repair it to return to the past. However, they soon realize that they are stuck in a time loop, and that Ethan's fate is already sealed.
As the story unfolds, Ethan discovers that his father, a scientist who worked on the time machine, was murdered by Regina, and that Jude was involved in his mother's death. Ethan also learns that the time machine's purpose was not to save humanity, but to allow a select few to escape to the future.
In the end, Ethan decides to sabotage the time machine and prevent Regina's plan from succeeding. He sends a message to the past, along with a copy of the recorded murder of his father, which leads to Regina's arrest. The plants that Ethan brought back from the future are used to revitalize the planet, and his wife receives a flower from him, indicating that he has changed the course of events. The movie ends with Ethan staying in the future, but finding a new sense of hope and purpose.
