“Time”

In Celtic mythology, children were always warned against meeting elves and traveling to their kingdom. Time in their beautiful green world, full of delights, flows so slowly that when a person decides to return home, he discovers that 50 or even 100 years have passed and everyone in his native village has long forgotten about him. Modern mythmaker Night Shyamalan in the film “In Time” offers an inverse version of the “elven utopia”: on a cozy sandy beach, time, on the contrary, flies at an incredible speed. And this is even more frightening than the prospect of returning to the future after drinking tea with the elves. But in general, no matter how you look at it, it is better to get into time traps only in the movies.
