Would you please explain about that?

Sometimes, I 'm usually confused about the difference of the date's range between in and within /   in and after

i'd like you to explain them by giving a example with a specific date

Case1= This project could be done after  a month.

Case2- This project could be done in a month.

Case3= This project could be done within a month.

---------------------------------------------------------

Please correct me if i'm wrong.

Case 2 and case 3 have the same meaning. Case1= This project could be done after a month. This is not natural.
