A thought provoking film about a brilliant young physicist named Alice. Based on a famous time-travel thought experiment in Quantum Mechanics, Alice travels through a wormhole, and is transported into an alternate version of the recent past where she encounters different versions of herself and her friend and lab partner, Bob. Trapped in a world that has diverged from ours during the Cold War, and which prizes collectivism over individuality, Alice is forced to confront her life choices, grappling with profound questions about identity, fate, and the search for meaning.
