Paper Girls
Created by Stephany Folsom
On Prime Video
A time-displaced adventure that pairs 1980s nostalgia with sci-fi spectacle, grounding its high-concept premise in the emotional bonds between young girls and their future selves.
It's the day after Halloween in 1988 when four young friends accidentally stumble into an intergalactic battle and find themselves inexplicably transported to the year 2019. When they come face-to-face with their adult selves, each girl discovers her own strengths as together they try to find a way back to the past while saving the world of the future.
