From Studiocanal, Sunnymarch, Film4 & A24, the film will make its world premiere at the 49th edition of the TIFF, screening on Friday, 6th September as a special presentation at The Princess of Wales Theatre.
We Live In Time stars twice Academy Award® nominated and BAFTA award-winning actor Andrew Garfield (Tick Tick... Boom, The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Under The Banner of Heaven, Spiderman, Hacksaw Ridge) and BAFTA and Academy Award® nominee Florence Pugh (Don’t Worry Darling, Little Women, Midsommar, Black Widow).
Almut (Florence Pugh) and Tobias (Andrew Garfield) are brought together in a surprise encounter that changes their lives. Through snapshots of their life together - falling for each other, building a home, becoming a family - a difficult truth is revealed that rocks its foundation. As they embark on a path challenged by the limits of time, they learn to cherish each moment of the unconventional route their love story has taken, in filmmaker John Crowley’s decade-spanning, deeply moving romance.
Olivier award-winning playwright and screenwriter Nick Payne (Constellations) wrote the screenplay. Studiocanal developed the film and produced with BAFTA-winning partners, SunnyMarch: Adam Ackland (The Mauritanian, The Electrical Life of Louis Wain, Patrick Melrose), Leah Clarke (The Mauritanian, The Electrical Life of Louis Wain) and Guy Heeley (Cyrano, Together, Locke).
