"10 seconds" is a British short Comedy-film, produced by the well known company UK Film Council.With a running time of only two minutes, this film is basically about a man (played by Nick Ewans), who's ability makes him foresee 10 seconds into the future.

A man wakes up one day to find he has a remarkable ability to see ten seconds into the future. Doing his household chores he finds this gift stops him doing stupid stuff as he is able to see himself spilling coffee etc and stop it before it happens however it is not long before he starts to consider how he can use his gift to help the rest of mankind.

Although i was expecting this short film to last ten seconds, it ironically lasted about 2 minutes longer. Saw it at the Landcrab Film Festival and enjoyed every second.

A middle-aged man (delightfully played with giddy aplomb by Nick Ewans) wakes up one fateful morning with the special magical ability to see ten seconds into the future. The man not only avoids stepping on a tack and spilling coffee on himself, but also finds a dollar bill under his bed.

The rules are simple. 120 seconds separates life or death.
