Cheryl Tunt is a woman who lost her husband to a drunk driver. She's now struggling to survive and raise their daughter. That's when their good friend approaches her about a time machine he built. The only caveat of using it is someone has to die.
This is mostly a character piece that also has time travel (with as low budget effects as you can possibly imagine). It explores the ethics and ramifications of using such a technology. The characters are faced with the choices they've made, and that leads them to wanting to use the machine again and again. Each time it's being used, more changes happen.
It's not a super entertaining film, but is carried by a strong performance by Judy Greer. It's more a conversation starter. Something you watch with other people and then discuss said ethics.
If reading this makes you curious, check it out. If not, skip it. Both are the correct choice based on your interest.
