FILM NOTES
A witty, time-bending comedy that turns the present into something newly strange.
A playful premise quickly deepens into something more perceptive in Cycle of Time, as a seemingly ordinary family is dropped into a world that feels both dazzling and disorienting. Vinciane Millereau uses the time-travel device not just for laughs, but to quietly observe how much — and how little — has changed. Everyday details become moments of revelation, as the past collides with a present that moves faster than anyone can quite process.
Elsa Zylberstein and Didier Bourdon anchor the film with warmth and comic precision, navigating confusion, curiosity, and occasional resistance as their world shifts beneath them. There’s a gentle intelligence at play here, finding humour in culture shock while asking more thoughtful questions about progress, identity, and what truly makes a life feel fulfilled.
