Synopsis

Forensic police officer Elsa Letellier’s life was indelibly marked by the fact that her father, also a cop, was mysteriously killed on her 6th birthday. So she’s followed in his footsteps.  When she’s suddenly transported back to 1994, just a few months prior to the murder, she’s convinced that she can somehow prevent his death… and to do so, quickly becomes his partner. However, things were quite different back in the 20th century, and a woke feminist cop can stir up quite a fuss in her dad’s old-school, macho world. Veteran comic actor Michaël Youn meets his match in up-and-comer Constance Gay, in this lighthearted fantasy thriller and modern-day battle of the sexes.
