A painter who was supposed to be at home with his daughter went to the female neighbor's house to steal sex while his wife was away. When he returned home, he found his daughter drowned in his own swimming pool. Five years later, his wife divorced, and the decadent painter lived a life of self-blame. After an attempted suicide, a butterfly leads the painter into a secret passage. At the other end, is a parallel world, only parallel five years ago. It just so happened that the painter had the opportunity to save his drowning children. In order to avoid the quarrel, the painter who traveled through killed himself five years ago, and since then he has replaced his original self and lived a dreamed and happy life. Not only has he regained his wife's trust, but he has also regained his sense of responsibility and love for his family and career. However, when the deeds of murder are finally exposed, in order to save the hard-won happiness, the serial killer has to suffer. When things developed viciously, the artist discovered that he was not the only one who had passed through. There are not a few people who have done wrong things. Everyone has traveled back, killed their original self, and pretended to be a substitute to live again. The most tangled thing is that when the divorced wife also travels back, a thorny dilemma is immediately in front of you.

The film is a German film starring Mads Mikkelsen, Denmark's sexiest actor, and won the 2010 German Film Critics Association Best Film Award. This is not an authentic sci-fi film, and we don't have to check whether it is in line with the logic of reality. The film just uses the form of time travel to interpret a story with far-reaching meaning, which is different from "The Time Traveler's Wife", which is full of sensory entertainment. For serious-minded Germans, doing anything hopes to cause people to think deeply. What if a momentary mistake leads to a lifetime of regret? Give it another chance and do it all over again, would you do better or worse? The film revolves around such a serious theme, taking a deep look at this topic from the perspective of a man who regrets.

Of course, this second chance also magnifies the series of good and evil. If this loophole is discovered by the wicked, they will use and control it without restrictions, just like the fat man in the film, a commanding aura is arranging the fate of others, and the kind people will eventually be kind. thing. The most practical action is that we are better not to make mistakes. Especially at the level of family theory, any wrong step will lead to an irreversible situation. Even if you give it another chance, it will not be as good as imagined. One wrong step, one wrong step, will eventually fall into a vicious circle. It is a human law that cannot be saved by any time travel.
