Faced with the inescapable threat of climate change, Le temps offers a journey to the heart of a world devastated by global warming. Wavering between the reality of a bygone era and the prospect of a frightening future, this anticipation film is constructed mainly from a succession of still images and supported by a narrative framework imbued with a sensitivity intimately linked to characters. He thus appeals simultaneously to the formal properties of cinema, photography and literature to propose a fable on the Anthropocene.

Doté d'une grande empathie envers les patients et ses méthodes médicales parfois peu orthodoxes mais redoutablement efficaces, Bash doit sans cesse prouver ses compétences, constamment remises en question à cause de son origine.
