Based on a short story by Robert Heinlein, this is a complicated time travel drama, that includes the trials and tribulations of a young androgynous girl, that is forced into a sex change by medical practitioners of a past era.
This is a very well made and acted movie. It’s also as far from a main stream time travel story line as I’ve ever seen. This movie is neither exciting nor fun. But it does holds your attention like driving by an accident. The emotions and pain the characters feel will suck you into watching simply to see what happens.
The story is complex and strangely riveting, but I found the open ended conclusion disappointing.
7/10
