Reset brings science fiction into a family drama about loss and responsibility. After her daughter Luna's suicide, television presenter Flo Bohringer discovers the possibility of travelling into the past. Trying to change events opens emotional and moral difficulties of its own.
Katja Riemann gives Flo's desperation and determination considerable force. Hannah Schiller contributes to the emotional connection with Luna, keeping the family relationships important within the time-travel construction. The premise matters because the feelings remain convincing.
The series asks what a parent might attempt to prevent a tragedy. Flo's choices reshape her relationship with her children and other people, connecting the imagined opportunity with uncomfortable questions about her own decisions.
The direction approaches the characters sensitively. Jieun Yi's camera captures the emotional landscape, while the editing turns successive episodes into parts of a more complex whole. The construction requires patient, attentive viewing.
Lara Frank's music reinforces the dramatic journey. The technical work supports the feelings rather than allowing the science-fiction mechanism to become the only attraction. Questions about freedom, fate and family remain closely connected.
Reset is a moving, intense and thoughtful series whose emotional weight lasts beyond the immediate story. Its examination of love and sacrifice gives the time-travel premise substance. Riemann's performance and the careful construction make the six-part experience worth following attentively.
