Long Synopsis

"If Not Now When" comes to life in a bizarre world where time loses control. Grandfather Clock Telephone Poles tower over the mountains. Father Time, a beetle with a satellite dish for a head, picks up signals at the peak. He leads Universal Mother, a half woman half mechanical spider, up the slope. The formation of her steel webs make the sun rise and spin the clock's gears. Universal Mother gives birth to Self, a young girl, but does not survive labor. The cycle begins again. Self dives into the current of time and transforms into a prehistoric fish. Self swims down into the underworld and transforms into a Siamese twin with a third leg of an elephant. As Self explores the murky cave, the 7 Deadly Sins emerge from the shadows. They are a pasty group of bearded ladies in tighty whities. Gluttonygula, Envyinvidia, Pridesuperbia, Wrathira, Slothacedia, Greedavaritia and Lustluxuria. The Sins surround Self... and things get weird. Self transforms into a large man with a bird mask and wooden feathers. Self barely escapes from the underworld. Upon re-entering the world through a trap door, Self transforms into a half woman half gorilla. Self discovers the mountain she was born on. A Grandfather Clock burns at the peak. Self climbs up, intrigued by the flames. Father Time finds her there. An army of Corporate Knights march below, with hopes of stopping the cycle from repeating. Self must decide whether she will sacrifice herself to keep the cycle going. Although things don't go as planned. Time goes out of control. The Corporate Knights call Prometheus, the fireman, to extinguish the flames and end the cycle. Prometheus hops in his 1928 Fire Engine. But when he arrives at the scene, Marie Antoinette appears in the flames and tempts Prometheus to join her. The fire spreads across the Last Supper as the Basketballapostles give a standing ovation and applaud. The steel web completes its formation over the clock's gears. The cycle begins again, although with a slight twist.
