Filmed over two decades, this documentary from Sundance-winning director Garrett Bradley follows an indomitable matriarch who cares for her children as they grow up while continuing to fight for the release of her incarcerated husband. Also nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance 2020.
With its ethereal mix of Emahoy Tsegue- Maryam Guebrou’s 1960s compositions and contemporary music by Jamieson Shaw and Edwin Montgomery, combining with juxtaposed digital footage from recent times and Sibil’s low-res 90s recordings, Time’s overall tone and message is one of melancholy and loss.
