Family Time

A daughter's wish on Father Time's mystical watch drags her divorced parents, little brother and grumpy grandfather into a tumultuous journey across time. As they navigate their collective past, they confront a haunting question: can they unite to save their family, or will their discord doom them to be lost in time? Ultimately, they discover that while time can be bent, the bonds of family are unbreakable.

Family Time is an all-ages adventure where the Sloan family, strained by divorce and everyday struggles, finds themselves on an unexpected journey through time. Jack, Diane, and their children, Biddy and Lukas, stumble upon a magical pocket watch that transports them to different eras. From battling dinosaurs in the prehistoric jungle to navigating the medieval ages, each jump through time tests their bonds and reveals deeper truths about their relationships.

As they encounter various historical and fantastical challenges—including escaping from tyrannosaurs, avoiding execution in the Middle Ages, and surviving a Vietnam War zone—they must learn to work together. Along the way, they meet their younger selves, face the consequences of their past decisions, and strive to change their destiny.

Despite the chaos, the family finds moments of connection and growth. Diane and Jack, in particular, confront their unresolved issues, while Biddy and Lukas discover inner strengths they didn't know they had. Ultimately, "Family Time" is a heartwarming adventure about the power of family, the importance of understanding, and the timeless pursuit of happiness.
