Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The film deliberately shares its title with Zemeckis's blockbuster, forcing a collision between Hollywood time-travel fantasy and Spain's actual democratic transition.
Carrasco filmed in Elche using non-professional actors born after 1982, creating an artificial memory of a moment they never experienced—making the 'future' of the title doubly ironic.
