Riley Rewind is a science fiction movie that was released in 2013. It is directed by Ray William Johnson and written by Johnson and Anna Akana who also stars in the movie. The movie follows the story of Riley Brown, a young girl who has the power to rewind time. When Riley's mother is murdered, she uses her power to go back in time and prevent the tragedy. However, as she returns to the present, Riley realizes that her actions have caused unforeseen consequences that she must now fix before it's too late.

Riley Brown is a typical high school student with all the usual interests and concerns of her age. She loves her friends, enjoys her classes and is interested in her science project. However, her life takes a drastic turn when her mother is killed by a masked intruder. Devastated by the loss, Riley decides to use her newly found power of time travel to rewrite history and save her mother's life.

The movie follows Riley as she travels back in time to different points in her life and tries to fix the events that led to her mother's murder. As she plays with time, she realizes that her actions have significant consequences that can affect the present and future. Each time Riley resets time, she sets off a chain of events that causes new and often lethal problems that she must navigate.

As the movie progresses, Riley discovers that she is not the only one with time-traveling powers, and someone else is trying to change history - but for his gain. At this point, Riley must race against time to fix everything she has done and put an end to the person responsible for her mother's death, before it is too late.

Throughout the movie, the acting of Akana is remarkable, pulling off a highly emotional performance that is entirely believable. Akana is complemented by an equally good cast, which manages to bring the story to life.
