    Tenet's timeline may be complicated, but the Protagonist's story is told in a straightforward chronological order... at least, from his perspective. Where things get mind-bending is when he inverts and experiences events from earlier in the movie from another angle. In order to keep the story straight, it's better to think of events on the timeline...

    At some point inTenet's future, a scientist discovered a means of inverting the entropy of objects using nuclear fission. This technology was used to create a machine called a turnstile, which inverts the entropy of anything (or anyone) placed inside it. That person or object then begins to move backwards through time instead of forwards. By invert...

    One of the many dangers of inverting is the risk of accidentally encountering your past self. This is a common feature of time travel movies, and characters are typically warned against it because they could end up changing the future. In Tenet, however, the danger comes down to a single word: "annihilation." In physics, annihilation refers to a re...

    The grandfather paradox is one of the most famous logical problems associated with time travel, and it boils down to this: is it possible to go back into the past and kill your own grandfather? It creates a paradox because if you killed your own grandfather, you would never be born, and therefore you wouldn't be able to go back into the past and ki...

    Tenet's concept of a time war means introducing battle tactics unique to fighting across time as well as space, and one tactic that's used several times is the "temporal pincer movement." In a traditional pincer movement, an army is split in order to attack the enemy on multiple fronts. The goal is to envelop the enemy, putting them in a vulnerable...
