"The Time That Never Came" is a melodrama directed by Julia Rogowska, a Belgium-Poland co-production from 2026. The film will be shown on November 20, 2026 at 6:00 PM at Miejskim Centrum Kultury, Czytelnictwa i Edukacji in Grybowie. The Polish premiere took place on October 16, 2026.
The story unfolds in a world where aging has become the greatest taboo. Sara and Oskar planned to grow old together. Oskar, like most people, underwent a revolutionary anti-geriatric treatment that ensures youth and a place in the new society. Sara refused and was placed in a closed isolation center.
Years later, Sara's escape attempt leads to a reunion of the protagonists. Their appearance divides them, but they share a lack of answers to questions postponed for years. The film raises questions: can feelings survive time and irreversible decisions, and can one be free and live truthfully in a world that denies the right to aging.
Practical information: runtime - 105 min, age rating - 15+, language version - original. The film is distributed by Next Film.
