Time Travel

About This Movie

So, 'Time Travel' is this intriguing documentary from 2011 that centers on Wong Kei, a 25-year-old guy who abandons his mundane job to roam the streets of Macao, capturing candid snapshots of everyday life. It’s like a quiet meditation on existence, really. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere of the old fishing village. When he snaps a certain photo, he’s suddenly thrust into a reflective journey through his hometown's past. The film has this almost dreamlike quality, blending Wong's personal journey with historical elements, and the practical effects they used to evoke time travel are quite charming, in a low-key way. It’s distinctive in its focus on nostalgia rather than action, making you ponder the passage of time itself.
