A disturbance between two different time periods causes a worrying butterfly effect. As a result of this event, Vera, a happily married mother, has the opportunity to save the life of a boy who lived in her house 25 years prior. However, the consequences of her good deed set off a chain reaction that causes her to wake up in a new reality in which her daughter has never been born and her husband doesn't even know her.

The time travel is getting a little bit old. I appreciate the force of production that we can see now a days to recreate different times in history and blablabla, but this parallel reality thing is getting out of hand, specially when is executed in this way, with awful plot-twits, is not you could see them coming, but when they do happen you get this "really? thats it?" feeling, maybe it's the fact that this movie is invested in romance but not quite to call it a main theme, it's just there as a tool o justification of the character actions and I dont like that, especially cause it feel weirdly acted and some lines feel forced. (I saw it in spanish as it is my main language). Anyways, just an opinion.
Its great to see international directors come out and do stuff on netflix, but this I dont like at all.
