About This Movie

So, 'Rewind' (2021) dives into this eerie mix of science fiction and thriller. The story revolves around a crime reporter whose daughter vanishes, and he ends up using lucid dreams to try to piece together what happened, with his scientist wife aiding him. It’s got an interesting atmosphere—dreamlike yet tense, with a sort of gritty edge that keeps you on your toes. The pacing is a bit unconventional; it builds slowly, letting you sink into that dream world.

The performances feel genuine, especially the leads, who bring a palpable desperation to their roles, making it a distinct watch in that genre landscape.
