In the vibrant landscape of 1990s New York, Broken Time weaves a poignant second chance narrative of midlife romance and family dynamics.

In 1993, Lili and Reid lock eyes across the room at a Jeff Buckley show at Sin-é in New York’s East Village, and their connection is kinetic. After spending a week together closing down dives and crashing at Lili’s shoebox-sized apartment on Avenue A, Reid settles back home in LA, and they lose touch—cell phones and emails don’t exist, after all. Thirty years later, Sin-é is reopening for a one-night-only tribute show for the late Jeff Buckley.

Driven by memories of the past, Lili and Reid, now both single parents, decide to go—each dragging along Gen Z daughters along with them. When Lili and Reid spot each other across the room yet again, it feels like no time has passed. But can their romance withstand the demands of midlife and complicated family dynamics, or is it best left as a memory?
