Synopsis
AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE
La Venue de l’avenir
In 2025, nearly 30 individuals learn unexpectedly that they are linked by one shared ancestor, Adèle Meunier (Suzanne Lindon). The legacy awaiting them is unusual: a countryside home in Normandy, abandoned for decades and suspended in time.
Four of them, Seb (Abraham Wapler), Abdel (Zinedine Soualem, Divertimento, AF FFF24), Céline (Julia Piaton, Like a Prince, AF FFF25) and Guy (Vincent Macaigne, Three Friends, AF FFF25), are sent to survey the estate. They enter the property expecting organisation, documentation and clear boundaries. The house replies with echoes.
As they uncover traces of Adèle’s life, the story opens onto another era. In 1895, Adèle leaves Normandy at twenty and reappears in Paris, a city alive with invention, early photography and the rise of Impressionism. The film moves between 2025 and 1895, letting the past mirror the present. This dialogue across time gently challenges the relatives’ certainties, inviting them to rethink identity, legacy and the future they carry without realising it.
With COLOURS OF TIME, Cédric Klapisch (Rise, AF FFF22, Back to Burgundy, AF FFF18) fashions a sensitive and luminous family saga, connecting the great history of the 19th century to contemporary questions and the invisible ties that shape us across generations.
