About this event
United by the unexpected inheritance of a house in present-day Normandy, four estranged cousins discover their family’s history. As they explore the house, left untouched since the 1940s, they delve into the life of their ancestor, Adèle Vermillard, taking us to 1895 Paris, with the City of Light on the brink of an industrial and cultural revolution. Through back-and-forth journeys between 1895 and 2025, the cousins cross paths with figures like Monet, Nadar, and Sarah Bernhardt, in a journey that helps them make sense of their own future. Aptly titled “The Coming of the Future” in French, Colours of Time plunges us into a moment in time when Parisian creativity is at its apex… when not only electricity and technology, but photography and Impressionism in painting and music are creating a spark that’s about to erupt into a movement far beyond anyone’s expectations. Cédric Klapisch‘s ( Call My Agent! ) endearing new comedy is nothing less than a soul-stirring, time-traveling – at times, hallucinogenic – trip for art lovers everywhere.
