What all is ‘Back to 15’ all about? 

According to Netflix, "‘Back to 15’ is a funny and exciting production that follows Anita's self-discovery and maturity journey.

But at 30, her life is nothing like that. After unfortunate events, she takes refuge in the bedroom where she spent adolescence and, like magic, is propelled to the first day of high school: a 30-years-old head in the body of a 15-years-old teenager!"
