Synopsis
Director: Garrett Bradley
80 min, USA, 2020
How long would you wait for the love of your life? For Fox Rich, mother of six, the answer is decades. After her husband went to prison for bank robbery, she fought tirelessly over the years to maintain her marriage, her family, and her dignity. In this “emotionally overwhelming” (Los Angeles Times) and “simply stunning” (Rolling Stone) work of art, Sundance best-director-winner Garrett Bradley creates an impressionistic, intimate depiction of a heroic woman over 20 years, by beautifully blending images from her past and present. As her children grow up to be accomplished young men, Fox becomes a businesswoman and indomitable activist, undeterred by the tests of time and the prison-industrial complex. Both moving love story and searing social critique, Time is “a poignant and monumental portrait of mass incarceration in America” and its personal toll (Indiewire).
