Who does not wish to go back in time and change the course of events, especially when something bad has happened? Florence’s world falls apart the day that her daughter Marilou takes her own life. In search of answers to questions such as: Where did I go wrong? And what could I have changed? Florence discovers a toogood- to-be-true company named Plan B, which offers the possibility to go back in time. In her journey to save her daughter’s life, Florence uses Plan B a few times to find out what troubles her daughter. But she realises throughout her travels that the image of her own success is suffocating Marilou, who does not believe she can attain such a level of perfection. We follow a woman who, herself in a quest for a better world, discovers the limits of a mother’s power over her child’s happiness. This programme makes us question, as a society, the difficulties of finding balance between family and work, what it means to be a mother and a fulfilled woman today, and the example we set for our children. It also juggles with the idea of being able to travel in time and exert control over life’s events and what the price is you would have to pay for that.
