A slight departure from Groundhog Day, the movie.
20 February 2021
We really enjoyed this movie, it is well written and never lost our interest. It borrows from Groundhog Day and the characters even mention that movie, comparing their experience to it.

It turns out two people, teenagers, a boy and a girl, both of them refer to their experience as a temporal anomaly, a disruption in the spacetime continuum which can be related to time travel. At precisely midnight each day they each revert to waking up time again, repeating the same day.

In this mode they experience an increasing number of "tiny perfect things" in daily life, eventually he creates a map of their community noting the place and time of each one. Thus the name of the movie.

It isn't just a time-loop comedy, it also has serious themes of appreciating life and the people around you. In a sense it parallels Groundhog Day in that they can't get out of the loop until they acknowledge and accept certain things in their lives.

Good movie, my wife and I watched it at home on Amazon streaming.
