We Live in Time
We Live in Time, starring Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield, explores how the fleeting moments of our lives weave together to shape our identities and relationships. Set against a backdrop where every tick of the clock carries both a memory and a promise, the film follows two intertwined lives that reveal the delicate balance between holding on and letting go. Through poetic flashbacks and heart-stopping present moments, the narrative captures love’s beauty and heartbreak against the relentless rhythm of time.
We Live in Time was filmed across Herne Hill, including some of our iconic screening locations, such as Station Square and Brockwell Park.
We’re bringing this film to you at Herne Hill Baptist Church, which is the last building designed by architect Charles Barry, who was also responsible for rebuilding the Houses of Parliament. Please do not bring food or drinks to the church.
We would like to thank Lowie for sponsoring this screening of We Live in Time.
FREE MAKES IT INCLUSIVE, DONATIONS MAKE IT HAPPEN
As part of this year’s Herne Hill Free Film Festival we are pleased to be supporting again the Norwood & Brixton Food Bank, helping to raise awareness for this most worthy of local causes. Any donations by card or cash at each of our screenings would be greatly appreciated to help this wonderful charity continue its admirable work*
