A short film omnibus featuring the work of five directors representing five countries involved in the 2017 BRICS summit, an annual international relations conference held between Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. The collection—taking the concept of time as a unifying theme—depicts the economic, political, and social alienations and contradictions that create, compound, and structure issues as wide-ranging as poverty, class stratification, and homeless; familial distress; spousal abuse; and natural disaster.
Directed by Jia Zhangke, Madhur Bhandarkar, Walter Salles, Jahmil X.T. Qubeka, Alexey Fedorchenko, Where Has Time Gone? leans on a strong ensemble — Zhao Tao, Liang Jingdong, Mandisa Nduna — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 2017.
