Scott plays Cass, a guarded young woman whose path collides with Virgil, a man burdened by memory and fate. Their connection unfolds as both love story and metaphysical puzzle, suggesting that some relationships cycle through lifetimes. Raz directs with lush, lyrical style, infusing scenes with mythic resonance while keeping the emotions grounded.
Scott brings warmth and vulnerability, while Harington adds gravitas to a character who feels haunted by forces larger than himself. The chemistry between them glows, pulling viewers into a story that feels both timeless and fresh. Eternal Return is earnest, romantic, and unabashedly emotional, a film for anyone who believes love can defy time itself.
