Arcadia

Set on a country estate in Derbyshire, Arcadia presents a narrative that shifts seamlessly between two centuries. In 1809, the film introduces Thomasina, a teenage mathematical prodigy, and her tutor Septimus. Their interactions reveal family secrets, unrequited love, and philosophical debates about chaos theory and gardening.

The story then transitions to 1992, where a garden historian and literature professor delve into the estate's history. They seek answers to questions about past events, such as the possible presence of Lord Byron and the mysteries surrounding a hermitage. The film emphasizes the importance of cherishing time with loved ones while drawing parallels between past and present.
