IN Don’t come home on Netflix, what begins as a search for a lost girl ends up becoming a full-fledged sci-fi scenario. When the plot discovers (leaving some gaps in the necessary explanations) that the house where the disappearance occurs is the setting of something more puzzling. That is, a temporary gap. Which allows you to travel back in time and becomes the center of the story. Something that will make the plot move away from simple explanations of the events he talks about.
Moreover, it explores the possibilities of a time paradox, turning the entire plot into a time loop designed to repeat a set of dramatic events over and over again. Especially when a tragic crossroads that combines both the past and the future in one situation turns Wari (Voranukh Bhirom Bhakdi) into a victim. Being a hostage to a chain of circumstances which he cannot control and which become more complex as the story progresses.
But the most striking thing about the plot is the use of time paradox to explore a plot of pain, grief, mourning and the inevitable. Apart from some errors in his script, Don’t come home It is created to reflect on the nature of despair and suffering. Through a series of events that condemn Varya. to an inexplicable fate and those around him to become part of his tangled story.
Mother looking for answers
To clarify what’s going on in the new Netflix series, it’s handy to remember that science fiction often imagines time travel through two possibilities. Firstly, the machine allows you to arrive on the same schedule after certain dates, which is what happened in Avengers: Endgame. Another phenomenon that also realizes the possibility of travel, but it is more chaotic and closer to an unpredictable phenomenon.
This second option is used by the argument Don’t come hometo make your story work. So, although Panida (Cindy Sirinha Bishop) tries to create an artifact that allows her to change time, she manages to create a portal. And it does not provide control or show how time is distorted through it. Because of this, among other things, little Min (Ximena Frutos), Varya’s daughter, is sent back in time, unable to return. But also, that time frames become parallel and overlap each other.
This chronological change allows Vari to see Min, lost in the past, in the present. And also the fact that the girl can see her supposed mother, like a shadow, walking from one end of the house to the other. But it’s not really about the ghosts, it’s about how the show explains it. Timelines overlap and are mixed due to the phenomenon that forms the basis of the plot.
Back and forth in one step
Since the temporal phenomenon has no rules, the argument uses a caveat to create its greatest paradox. Namely: Vari and Min are the same person, just at different stages of their maturity. How does this happen? The explanation comes from the more dramatic side of the argument. Panida, grieving the death of her daughter, opens a portal in the basement of her house, absorbing Min from the future. Not knowing where this little girl came from and how – and since when – arrived to her, he decides to keep her and marry her off as his daughter.
Therefore, he baptizes her, calling her Varya, and hides the strange phenomenon associated with her appearance. Vari grows up, gets married and becomes the father of Min, who, caught in a time loop, is lost in time. Only for everything to repeat itself over and over again. This leads to the use of the so-called paradox in the plot bootstrap or predestination. A theory that suggests that if the chronological order is changed, the time traveler will be trapped in a series of situations. this will eventually lead you to time travel sooner or later.
So Min is doomed to grow up as Vari, a father herself, only to return to the house where Min travels through time. Although the series ends with an explanation of what happened, it does not clarify whether there is a way – according to the proposed storylines – to stop the cycle or, in any case, to save Varya’s life.The latter is destined to die again and again.
