The life of Seraphine takes a sudden turn when she meets Nemo, a young man who pretends to come from the future. When he offers her to go back in time, her decision is obvious: she knows where and when to go. 23 years back, so she can stop the incident that destroyed both her mother's life and her own.
But if the future is full of mysteries, the past could very well be hiding secrets she does not want to discover...
