Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh fall heart-stoppingly deep in love in London, in this romance directed by John Crowley (The Goldfinch).
Tobias (Garfield) is going through a divorce when he is hit by a car and ends up in hospital. It’s not the usual recipe for romance, but luckily it was ambitious chef Almut (Pugh) who struck him. Almut waits by his side in the hospital to apologise and the two soon form a connection, which sets the stage for an epic romance about the possibilities of life, the prospect of death and what it can mean to love.
We Live in Time is non-linear; one minute in the past, the next in the future. The juxtaposition of these moments creates new meaning, and a deeper emotional resonance; the kind that our usual linear experience rarely affords us.
Directed by the film and theatre director John Crowley, known for his award-winning runs of Martin McDonagh's The Pillowman, and the film adaptation of Donna Tartt's The Goldfinch.
