The official synopsis reads: “Almut (Pugh) and Tobias (Garfield) are brought together in a surprise encounter that changes their lives. Through snapshots of their life together, falling for each other, building a home, becoming a family, a difficult truth is revealed that rocks its foundation. As the couple embarks on a path challenged by the limits of time, they learn to cherish each moment of the unconventional route their love story has taken.”

Leah Clarke, Guy Heeley, and Adam Ackland produce the feature, which will debut at this year’s TIFF .

Both Pugh and Garfield are returning to their respective indie drama roots after their dual turns in the superhero realms. While Garfield reprised his “Spider-Man” role for “No Way Home” in 2021, Pugh debuted in “Black Widow” the same year. Pugh continues her Marvel tenure with upcoming franchise installment “The Thunderbolts.”

And Pugh and Garfield have separately commented on balancing both big budget franchises and indies alike. Pugh reflected on the initial backlash she received for seemingly selling out after breakout roles in independent films like “Lady Macbeth” and “Midsommar.”

“So many people in the indie film world were really pissed off at me. They were like, ‘Great, now she’s gone forever,’” Pugh told Time magazine. “And I’m like, no, I’m working as hard as I used to work. I’ve always done back-to-back movies. It’s just people are watching them now. You just have to be a bit more organized with your schedule.”

Garfield, meanwhile, told British GQ that he always “ wanted to be a theatre actor first ” in his career.

“It’s that eternal struggle between being devoted to the invisible world, the world of spirit, the world of imagination, creativity, what we know we’re meant to do. But if we were purely devoted to that, it would be much harder for us to put a roof over our heads. So how do we balance that?” Garfield said. “We’re living through a capitalistic period in the history of humanity. And it’s deeply disgusting and horrific and ugly and all those things, as well as beautiful. It’s a fascinating time to be alive. And how do artists – how does anyone, because everyone is an artist – really retain that connection to soul, to spirit, to the unseen, to the thing that really pulls us?”

“We Live in Time” premieres October 11 in theaters. Check out the trailer below.
