A woman torn between an old love and a younger clone navigates cultural divides and a bittersweet destiny.
Romantic and melancholy. A date-night pick at a measured pace. Emotionally it is heavy.
It stays inside its TV-14, with some innuendo or implied sex and mild language.
Rated TV-14, but by what is on screen our estimate is fine from about 10.
How we rate: an AI reads what is known about each title and tags it 0 to 3; we check the tags against a hand-rated set and correct them by hand when readers tell us. Estimates, not a scene-by-scene review. Spot a mistake? Tell us.
Lucas falls for a young Arab girl named Jade. She is caught between modern values and her Islamic upbringing. They separate and two decades pass. Then a strange turn of luck brings the pair together. Then Jade meets a clone, who is just like Lucas, but twenty years younger. She must choose between the man she loved and the memory she cherishes.
Bittersweet. It earns its ending, but not everyone gets what they want.
