## Synopsis

Back to 15 (2022-2024) is a Brazilian time travel comedy-drama series created by Janaina Tokitaka for Netflix. Maisa Silva plays Anita, a dissatisfied woman who discovers a way to return to age 15, while Camila Queiroz plays her adult self, a pairing that drives the show's central tension between grown-up regret and teenage impulse. Klara Castanho, Amanda Azevedo and João Guilherme Ávila round out the principal school circle, with Antonio Carrara and Nila appearing in the wider cast. The engine of the series is Anita's attempt to change what happened in her past, and each episode turns on the small consequences of her choices within the friendships, crushes and family pressures of adolescence. Across three seasons of six episodes each, the show moves as one continuing story, with the stakes of altering the past growing as the consequences compound. Set in contemporary Brazil, the series balances breezy humor with a wistful, hopeful reflection on identity, sexuality and growing up. Its tone is warm and sincere, and it will appeal to viewers who enjoy Quantum Leap, Never Have I Ever and Sex Education for their mix of youthful comedy and emotional self-examination.
