About

"Time travel used to rewrite a childhood tragedy"

A struggling artist discovers he has an involuntary power that yanks him back in time whenever tragedy is about to strike, letting him intervene moments before disaster. When his mother is murdered, the power flings him back decades to his childhood, forcing him to relive it and uncover a killer who once targeted his classmates. It plays as a slow-burn mystery wrapped in melancholic nostalgia, more contemplative than thrilling, carried by its child actors and a persistent sense of dread beneath ordinary school days.

Watch it for

the child actors who carry real dread beneath everyday school scenes.

Maybe skip if

you want fast-paced thrills rather than a slow, melancholic mystery.
