Tara Selter and her husband Thomas share a house in Clairon-sous-Bois, a small town in the north of France. After a brief trip away she gets home to find herself stuck in one date, the eighteenth of November, which keeps coming back. Thomas wakes each morning sure that it is new, so every day she must explain everything again, and the couple try to reach each other from inside two separate timelines while slowly understanding what it means for time to break.
