Barb is a 14-year-old high school track star and cheerleader in love with her 15-year-old star athlete boyfriend when a single moment of passion changes their lives forever. Chris is a black teenager who is pregnant because of rape and lives with other runaways in parks and under bridges. Both girls deny their situation for too long as they avoid making the most important choice of their young lives. As Chris and Barb seek answers to help make their decision about having a baby or terminating the pregnancy, the film presents interviews with experts on those questions with opposing views about a woman's right to choose.

“小11”米莉·波比·布朗将和她的姐姐佩奇·布朗共同出演Netflix新片《失去的时光》（A Time Lost，暂译），故事以两个长岛家庭之间的长期不和为中心，当其中一个家庭里十几岁的女儿被诊断出患有癌症时，他们的矛盾达到了顶峰。
影片基于米莉和佩奇这对姐妹原创的故事，然后由Anna Klassen负责改编成电影剧本。布朗姐妹周二在一份声明中表示：“我们非常感谢Netflix对我们和这个美丽故事的信任，我们花了多年时间编写和发展这个故事。这个故事关于友谊、家庭，以及感觉整个世界想把你击败时如何克服障碍。这真的是一次爱的劳动。”
