Summer Time: Travel Back

About This Movie

So, 'Summer Time: Travel Back' is this quirky family comedy that dabbles in nostalgia and the complexities of parent-child relationships. It's set in 1988, which gives it this charming retro vibe, especially if you're into 80s aesthetics. The kids—Romka, Yarik, Nikoletta, and Yelisey—end up in the Artek camp, where they interact with their younger parents, and there’s a lot of awkward but heartfelt moments. The pacing feels a bit slow at times, but it lets you soak in all those layered interactions. The performances are pretty authentic, capturing that youthful innocence. It’s distinct with its magic tree premise, which brings a fun twist to classic time-travel narratives, and you can't help but appreciate the practical effects on display.
