"Two teenage opposites become magically cuffed together by an ancient artifact and have 48 hours to break the bond before it becomes permanent, forcing them on a chaotic road trip where they discover that the real threat isn't being stuck together, it's the fear of being set free."
SYNOPSIS:
Infinity Bond
Ethan, 17, a quiet history nerd, gets lost during a school museum trip and accidentally wanders into a restricted room. Inside sits the Infinity Bond, a thousand-year-old golden infinity-shaped artifact, said to have been used by a princess to “keep” her prince forever.
Without warning, a glowing, translucent version of the artifact forms around Ethan’s waist—an infinity-shaped belt, one loop locking him in place like a luminous ring. Chloe, 17, the untouchable popular girl, also gets lost and stumbles into the same room. When she bumps into Ethan and grabs him, the second loop snaps around her waist too.
They’re now trapped inside the same infinity belt. Try to pull apart beyond a three-foot limit, and the bond yanks them back hard, like an invisible leash. No one else can see it. Panicked, they sneak back to their group and play it cool, but the truth sinks in fast: they can’t go home like this, and they can’t ask for help without admitting they broke into a restricted area.
So they run.
Ethan uses his last few bucks to get them a grim motel room. Forced into constant, humiliating proximity, they fight over everything—the blanket, the shower, even bathroom trips with one person facing the wall. They despise each other.
But Ethan discovers something worse: they have 48 hours before the bond becomes permanent. And when the museum notices the disturbance, they decide to transfer the artifact to a partner museum in another city.
Ethan and Chloe realize their only chance is to follow it there.
Over two brutal days on the road—buses, tight spaces, awkward meals—something changes. Chloe sees Ethan isn’t just some geek. He’s sharp, funny, steady. He doesn’t treat her like a queen—he treats her like a person. Ethan sees past Chloe’s perfect image to the girl underneath, lonely and terrified of losing the spotlight.
Somewhere between the fights and the laughter, they fall for each other.
When they finally break into the partner museum at night and reach the artifact, they try the deactivation sequence Ethan found. It doesn’t work. They try again. Nothing.
Then it hits them: the bond isn’t holding because of magic anymore. It’s holding because they’re attached—really attached. The artifact was born from a princess’s fear of losing someone, and now it’s feeding on theirs.
Security alarms blare. Seconds left.
Chloe and Ethan realize what they have to do: refuse possession. Choose freedom over fear.
Shaking, Chloe says, “I want you free… even if it means without me.”
Ethan answers, “Me too. I’m not holding you back.”
The golden link shatters like glass and vanishes. They step apart. Free.
Security drags them out. Their parents are called. They’re in deep trouble. But the next day at school, Chloe walks straight up to Ethan in front of everyone. No hiding. No pretending.
Two kids who survived something impossible and chose each other anyway—not because they had to, but because they wanted to.
And somewhere behind glass, the Infinity Bond waits for the next heart that mistakes love for a prison.
Fares Moha I absolutely love reading this and can most definitely see this being a feature film. Held me all the way to the end. I'd like to see Maurice Vaughan take as he's more in the screenwriting lane than I. Fares Moha , now that you've finished the synopsis - what are you planning to do next with this?
Cyrus Sales Thank you so much for your message — it truly means a lot. I really appreciate the compliment.
To be transparent, I only recently started getting into animated screenwriting. My next step is to finish writing the full script, and then pitch it at the right time, once everything is truly ready.
At the same time, I’m working on a live-action series that takes a lot of my time and energy. So I also write a few animated synopses as a creative breather — a way to keep the momentum going.
And most importantly: each animated story is unique and can stand completely on its own, but they’re all connected to my series in a more subtle way — through themes, echoes, symbols, and sometimes a small detail or a character in the background. It’s not a direct crossover, more like a discreet thread. With me, everything connects.
Wishing you a wonderful holiday season and a happy end of year!
Fares Moha I love how intentional your process is. The idea of everything being connected through themes and subtle threads is dope, especially when each story can still stand on its own. It makes the world feel lived-in and thoughtful. Totally get balancing the live-action series with animation as a creative breather, that actually sounds like a healthy way to keep momentum without burning out. I’m looking forward to seeing how it all comes together when the timing is right. Wishing you a great end to the year and an even stronger start to the next one. Excited to stay connected.
