Netflix says: "No matter how good your relationship, which one of us can honestly say we haven’t thought about whether there is someone better out there?

"What if a hair sample is all it takes to find them?

"The idea is simple, but the implications are explosive. We will never think of love and relationships in the same way again."

In the trailer, CEO Rebecca is shown saying: A single strand of hair is all it takes to be matched with the one person that you are genetically guaranteed to fall in love with."
