In a recent video, Nolan delves into the concept of entropy, a key element in Tenet that shapes the 'direction of time.' Unlike conventional time travel narratives, Tenet explores a world where machines can alter the flow of time, creating a symmetrical yet perplexing narrative that challenges viewers to rethink cause and effect.

The Palindromic Puzzle of Tenet
As Nolan unravels the mysteries of Tenet, one can't help but marvel at the intricate design of the film. Just like its title, Tenet is a palindrome, reflecting a narrative that unfolds in both directions of time with equal significance.
