When Does "LIFE" (2017) Take Place?
"LIFE" is a science fiction horror film written by Rhett Reese with Paul Wernick and released March 24th, 2017. So when is "LIFE" set?
It takes place in the year:
We know this because while interviewed via telecommunication by schoolchildren on the real-world International Space Station, I.S.S.

2000 + 30 = 2030.
There's a title card marking the start of the project's progress from "INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION MARS PILGRIM 7 MISSION DAY 1" at the very beginning of the movie, Doctor Miranda North refers to the recent events before saying, "after weeks" at about a quarter through the story, and the narrative accelerates from there. So we know it takes place in less than 2 months, making it almost certainly entirely within the calendar year of 2030 AD.
