Episode Synopsis

"In a quiet Viennese café, a strange clock ticks in reverse — its hands moving counterclockwise, defying everything we know about time. At first, it seems like a joke. But for those who sit beneath it, the backwards clock sparks unsettling questions: does time only move forward because we expect it to? In this episode of The Curiosity Cabinet, we explore how one peculiar object reveals the fragile way we measure — and experience — time."
