This film is family friendly.
After losing her partner, Claire is consumed by loneliness and regret. Desperate for a second chance, she turns to a dangerous experimental technology that momentarily rewinds time, hoping to relive—and perhaps change—a defining moment from their past. Using the device blurs the boundaries between memory and reality. Her attempt pushes her to the edge, triggering a breakdown that might also serve as a breakthrough. Confronted with the unpredictable consequences of tampering with time, Claire is forced to question whether the promise of rewriting her past is worth the risk of losing herself entirely.
Director's Statement
If you're anything like us, you've struggled with the thought of "what if?" What if I had just done this one thing differently...not lost touch with so and so...gone this way instead of that... If you could go back and do it all again--would you? This film strikes at the core of these questions, and forces us to answer: should we accept that the choices we make shape who we become, for better or worse?
