Controversial French flick released in 2002, directed by Gaspar Noe. Won the "Bronze Horse" award at the Stockholm Film Festival and was nominated for the Palme d'Or at Cannes. Also one of the most difficult movies to watch, due to a 9-minute rape scene and a guy getting his face caved in with a fire-extinguisher to some really creepy-ass music.
More than 200 people walked out of Irreversible at Cannes, mostly due to its lengthy rape scene.

Something of which, once it has occured, cannot be changed nor undone.

A consequence that cannot be reversed.
Some consequences are evitable, such as preventing or reducing the extent of an injury by wearing a seat-belt, or preventing a pregnancy by using a condom.
However, other consequences are inevitable, such as being disliked after saying something offensive.
And an irreversible consequence is one no one can go back in time and prevent from taking place because the action which produced it was executed.
The only way to prevent any type of consequence is by not executing an action (known to produce certain types of consequences).
Nonetheless, not doing anything might also generate some type of foreseeable or unforeseeable consequence.
