When Does "We Live in Time" (2024) Take Place?
"We Live in Time" is a romance film written by Nick Payne that released October 11th, 2024. So when is "We Live in Time" set?
It takes place roughly in the years:
We know this because Almut Brühl wants to compete in the real-world cooking competition the Bocuse d'Or, (which was first held in January of 1987 AD) and after 2007 AD, the competition was separated into Bocuse d'Or Asia, Bocuse d'Or USA, and Bocuse d'Or Europe, which occurs every two years in the summer. It's specified the event takes place in the summertime so the relevant later part of the story must take place after 2008 AD.
2010s AD

A complete lack of mentions of the famous and tragic 2020 worldwide COVID-19 pandemic strongly encourages a February of 2020 AD cutoff.
Partway through the movie, the characters celebrate New Year's Eve so at this point the story crosses over into the next year.
