Woman Freezes Time on City Street to Escape a Thief

A 30-second cinematic supernatural thriller in which a young woman screams to freeze an entire busy city street, then walks through the frozen crowd making small playful adjustments before snapping her fingers to restart time. The technique relies on a locked character identity from a reference image, handheld tracking that becomes smooth after the freeze, and a strict rule that only she and the objects she touches can move.
