Discussion with director Colin Trevorrow and screenwriter Derek Connolly to follow

When an unusual classified ad inspires three cynical Seattle magazine employees to look for the story behind it, they discover a mysterious eccentric named Kenneth, a likable but paranoid supermarket clerk who believes he’s solved the riddle of time travel and intends to depart again soon. Together, they embark on a hilarious, smart, and unexpectedly heartfelt journey that reveals how far believing can take you.

“Because nothing plays out as anticipated, this off-balance project comes fully alive on screen in a way a written summary can’t capture.”
– Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times

“Touching, generous, sweet, this little slip of a movie puts you under some kind of spell.”
– Mary F. Pols, Time Magazine
