About this listen

In the winter hush of Prague, museum restorer Clara discovers a disassembled clock and a diary from 1923 signed by a vanished clockmaker, Emil Svoboda. Inside its brass heart lies a mechanism that can steal an hour—or return it. Drawn by curiosity and haunted compassion, Clara restores the device and unwittingly opens a bridge through time, allowing Emil to cross for a single minute each midnight.

What begins as an encounter between history and repair becomes a meditation on love, ethics, and the fragile machinery of forgiveness. Together they must decide whether time’s gift is mercy or temptation. The Clockmaker’s Promise is an intricate, lyrical tale about invention, devotion, and the courage to end a beautiful story well.
