A time capsule of New York City between August 13-15, 1965, framed by the Beatles’ arrival in the city and their first concert at Shea Stadium. The film consists exclusively of archive material from the period (ABC, CBS, NBC), 8mm home movies and images of the concert, which was recorded with fourteen 35mm cameras. Four teenagers are sent on a trip through time and inserted in the archive material by means of animation.

[Venice '24] The Beatles are essential but not main characters in this fictional story built from reality. Because the film reveals itself as a time capsule that focuses on the year 1965 to offer a representation of the social transformations that were experienced in the United States. It expands to other events that occurred in that year, contrasting the modernity and casualness of the New York World's Fair with the Watts Riots in Los Angeles. The musical revolution among young people, the projection into the future of a global representation of technological advances, and racial movements make up a very heterogeneous representation of the upheaval that was taking place in the United States. An extraordinary reflection of the past and its influence on the present.
