A young man struggles to access sublimated childhood memories. He finds a technique that allows him to travel back into the past, to occupy his childhood body and change history. However, he soon finds that every change he makes has unexpected consequences.
A suffocating sense of dread clings to every attempt to fix a fractured past. Each desperate leap into childhood memory triggers a chaotic ripple effect that leaves the present unrecognizable.
