The poor protagonist has a rough day, constantly restarting events over and over, with variant outcomes but then returning to try them again and again.
There is a bit of hope: he is invited to a party purportedly for those who have had a hard time with time.
He even manages to meet up with a girl he has fancied from afar who is also at the party. They dance....
And that's it!
Why his problems occurred in the first place is left unexplained. So too does the issue as to whether or not his difficulties have reached their end.
In order words, a bold narrative conception, virtually flawless cinematic technique and acting are both made for naught by a 'who knows?' conclusion.
