Rewind (2013 film)

Rewind is a 2013 made-for-television science fiction film which served as the pilot episode of an unaired television show.

The perpetrator, Benjamin Rourke, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, had become embittered by the death of his wife.

Having learned of a potential time travel experiment in progress, he engineered the bomb plot to force the US Government to send agents back to prevent the disaster from happening.

The story describes the process of the team, CIA agents Sean Knox and Danny Gates, and scientist Lyndsay Bryce, arriving at this conclusion and their efforts without doing too much damage to the time-line.
