About This Movie

Children. As Time Flies is quite the introspective documentary. Directed by Thomas Heise, it's part three of a broader exploration of life in Saxony-Anhalt, focusing on the everyday realities and dreams of its residents. The central figure, Jeanette, offers a raw glimpse into her life as she navigates becoming a mother at a young age and eventually realizing her aspiration of being a bus driver. The film's pacing feels deliberate—there’s a stillness that invites you into her world, contrasting with the noise of life around her.
