Agata Kulesza (“Ida”) and Bartosz Bielenia (“Corpus Christi”) will cheer up the “time that never came”.

The dystopian melodrama is scheduled to premiere in 2026 and will focus on a couple in a youth-obsessed world. Kulesza chose to age naturally, while her partner Oscar (Bielenia) received anti-aging treatments. A few years later, when they reunited - divided by time, but in the bondage of the past - Sarah embarked on a journey to reclaim the lost love, faced the burial emotions and found freedom.

Kulesza is also known for its "green border" type: "I really hope we can create a universal story that invites people to where older people are in today's world and whether we are worth too much to young people, and this is the race we are destined to lose from the beginning. I know that when you are young, you don't think about growing old - but none of us are creating older people for the sake of aging."

The film is directed by Julia Rogowska, who is making his debut.

"I'm interested in what young people think and how they see the world. This story and the world Julia creates in her imagination immediately moved me," added Kulesza.

"I think we connect through this sensitivity and the things that bother us in the world. I'm in a stage of life and it feels like a transition. I've made aging taboo and pushed older people aside. We only talk about them at age, but no one asks what that person means to the world or what they do.

Rogowska said that “the time never comes” is from about “where we are collectively obsessed with youth and where we silently eliminate our fears about aging.”

We explored with screenwriter Małgorzata Piłacińska what we were willing to sacrifice, and even gave up on this fear altogether. From the core, this is also a love story: a love story is shaped by time, memory, and desire. I was attracted by the dramatic emotional tension, and even after a few years, one could still look back, it might still be lost, it is a person in trouble, it is a lost thing, it is a lost thing, and it can be lost, it is a person.

She called Sarah "the kind of heroine we need today."

“We were told that major change is the field of young people, but Sara doesn’t see this concept,” Rogowska said. “She challenges not only how we view aging, but also about freedom.”

Also featuring Dobromir Dymecki and Michalina olabacz, "Time From the Future" was produced by Krystyna Kantor for Shipsboy (Poland). Co-produced by Joanna Szymańska, and Dries Phlypo for private view (Belgium). The next film deals with Polish release.

“As a company focused on international co-production, we are always looking for stories of cross-cultural connections, but ‘The Time Never Comes’ is our first majority. Sara’s journey makes us emotionally resonant, artistically ambitious, deeply connected to the world we live in.

Previously, "Dust", directed by Anke Blondé, worked with Shipsboy.

Phlypo noted: “We recognize that Shipsboy is a reliable, determined and strong partner. We are pleased to be able to switch characters now and stand in the ‘times that never appeared’ as co-producers, supporting this outstanding story.”

"This film offers a critical view of beautiful ideals and aging while presenting a fascinating and universal love story. From the very beginning, we are attracted by the originality and unique characteristics of the project, in which every obstacle and temptation always returns to the surface," he said.

“It’s about the power needed to let go, the consequences of the choices we make and the search for freedom and self-worth.”
