Cédric Klapisch's 'I colori del tempo' bridges Belle Époque Paris and the present

On November 13, 2025, Cédric Klapisch's film 'I colori del tempo' will debut in Italian theaters, with distribution by Teodora Film. Marking his inaugural official selection at the Cannes Film Festival, the film has already achieved success in France. The narrative revolves around a mysterious inheritance linked to Adèle Meunier, a woman from the early 1900s, as her descendants delve into her past through letters and photographs. Klapisch weaves a dual storyline featuring both Adèle and her heirs, contemplating the depiction of reality. Drawing inspiration from Eugène Atget and others, the film juxtaposes warm grain with digital clarity while critiquing modernity's evolution from electricity to smartphones, with Paris serving as a dynamic character.
