A synopsis of the series shares: “Life After Life stars Thomasin McKenzie as Ursula Todd, who is born to Sylvie and Hugh one night in 1910, but dies before she draws her first breath.
“On that same night in 1910, Ursula is reborn and survives. Time and time again, living and dying in different circumstances, Ursula is reborn into a new, alternative iteration of life once more.
“This compelling story follows Ursula as she navigates each new life, through a critical era which spans two world wars, an encounter with Hitler and major life events. But what is it that Ursula so desperately needs to stay alive for?
“Can a perfect life ever be lived? Can the course of history ever be changed? What if we could live life again and again?”
