Your reaction:
Watchlist:
Tempus Fugit explores the effects of being able to travel back and forth in time in boring and insignificant installments – half-day to 6-7 days, at a stretch. But the point is, much like Butterfly Effect (the film – the wikipedia definition!), small, utterly insignificant, initial variations can/ may lead to large changes in the long term. This fascinating theory is clubbed along with an average-nobody’s seemingly inconsequential every day act becoming significant enough to save the world – to an incredible effect.
Why you might like this:
Tempus Fugit, directed by Enric Folch in 2003, is a delightful blend of science fiction, comedy, and romance that explores the fascinating concept of time travel in a uniquely grounded, everyday setting. The film features a standout performance by Xavi Mira as an average person whose small actions have surprisingly impactful consequences, making it a must-see for fans of thought-provoking, character-driven sci-fi stories.
About
Tempus fugit is a Latin phrase, usually translated into English as "time flies". However, the literal translation of 'fugit' is 'flees' not 'flies'. The expression comes from line 284 of book 3 of Virgil's Georgics, where it appears as fugit irreparabile tempus: "it escapes, irretrievable time". The phrase is used in both its Latin and English forms as a proverb that "time's a-wasting".
