To Have Time

About This Movie

To Have Time (2022) is this quirky little film set in Madrid during a rather stagnant moment in time – regional elections and finals looming large. The tone is light but there's an underlying tension, stemming from the characters' desire to create something meaningful amidst the chaos. Pedro, Kiko, and Jesús are relatable, and their performances bring a mix of humor and sincerity that grounds the story. The pacing swings between laid-back moments of friendship and bursts of creative energy, reflecting the characters' own struggles. What stands out is the film’s practical effects; they're subtle yet effective, enhancing the everyday atmosphere of an empty park. It's a nice snapshot of a specific time and place, with a unique charm that feels very personal.
