Synopsis
Life After Life (2022) is a BBC miniseries you can watch online on iFILM. Ursula Todd is born on a snowy February night in 1910 — and dies. Then she's born again into the same family, the same house, the same century. Each life takes a slightly different shape.
Thomasin McKenzie plays Ursula across multiple lifetimes: an Edwardian country childhood, the 1918 flu, London burning in the Blitz, quieter paths in between. Directed by John Crowley (Brooklyn, 2015), the four-episode adaptation stays true to Kate Atkinson's 2013 novel in both spirit and structure — the story doubles back, resets, and each pass peels away a little more of what Ursula is trying to get right. Sian Clifford, Jessica Brown Findlay, and Leslie Manville give the recurring family real weight.
It's not time travel or fantasy — more a quiet argument that history is made of drafts. Stream Life After Life online on iFILM.
