The story centers on Andrew, Matt, and Steve, three teenagers who stumble upon a strange crystalline object that grants them telekinetic abilities. They begin testing their powers for fun—flying, pranking, and recording everything on camera. Over time, Andrew’s troubled home life and emotional isolation push him toward a darker path. While Matt struggles with responsibility and control, Andrew becomes increasingly unstable, using his powers to dominate others. The group’s friendship fractures as Andrew’s actions spiral out of control, leading to devastating consequences for the city and themselves. Chronicle explores themes of power, trauma, and accountability, offering a realistic and unsettling take on what might truly happen if ordinary people gained extraordinary abilities.
