Description
A middle-aged couple, whose marriage is on the rocks, return to Seville for a 'second honeymoon' - a gift from their children - only to encounter their younger selves on their first honeymoon 30 years earlier!
The older, sadder couple recognise their younger selves, but the younger couple, so newly in love, only have eyes for each other.
No one leaps through time. Each couple remains in their own era, yet somehow they can encounter and relate to each other in this timeless, magical city.
When the shock wears off, a plan begins to form - at least in the mind of the older man.
Can meddling with their past, starting right there in Seville, give the fractured pair any hope of a future? Or - more dangerously - will it wreak untold havoc on the present?
Seville is a bittersweet romantic comedy where past, present, and future mingle, clash, and resonate. A tale full of tension, poignancy, reflection and, of course, magic.
