“An existential thriller with nods to dime-store pulp and old-fashioned H-bomb paranoia, the film’s circular story opens in 1953, as New York crime novelist Terumi Matthews steps out for coffee and winds up mysteriously transported to 1997. Once there, she collides with doppelganger Nicole Zaray and ’50s science columnist James Urbaniak (Henry Fool), fellow ‘time freaks’ who share a genetic soul mutation that zips them through time spontaneously. Ruptured not only into past, present and future, but also into ‘what could have been and what yet could be,’ their existence is malleable and full of incidents beyond their knowledge or control, including murder.” – Scott Tobias, A.V. Club.
