Donnie Darko, played by Jake Gyllenhaal, is a troubled teenager who narrowly escapes death when a jet engine crashes into his room, pulling him into a surreal 28‑day countdown guided by a haunting rabbit figure named Frank. The film blends psychological tension and sci-fi elements as Donnie navigates time travel, teenage angst, and the unsettling pull of a fate that may be beyond his control. The film's dreamlike atmosphere, striking imagery, moody soundtrack, and emotional depth have made it a celebrated cult classic.

The film is in English with Dutch subtitles.
