Timestalker15

Directed by Alice Lowe | UK | 2024 | 1h 30m | Starring Alice Lowe, Jacob Anderson, Nick Frost, Natasia Demetriou, Sam Riley

Hapless heroine Agnes keeps falling for the wrong man, dying tragically, and then being reincarnated a century later—only to meet him again and start the cycle over. Through different periods in history, she navigates romantic failures while trying to avoid the same mistakes and break the curse once and for all. In her wildly inventive second feature, Alice Lowe (Prevenge) delivers a fresh and playful spin on the romantic comedy, blending genres in a film that’s as emotionally insightful as it is laugh-out-loud funny.

Join us on Tuesday 29th October for an in-person Q&A with writer and director Alice Lowe, hosted by podcaster and film writer Becky Darke (Empire, The Evolution of Horror, The Final Girls).
