Sin Wai Kin

A portrait of Victoria Sin, and the transformative power of drag.

The Time of Our Lives is a science fiction film in the style of a sitcom. In a domestic setting, moments from the lives of the couple V Sin and Wai King unfold through sequences beyond standardized clock time and linear chronologies. Drawing from theories of quantum mechanics and general relativity, the work uproots the concept of absolute time as a means to challenge assumptions about objective truth and consensus reality.

A story that plays with times, references, space and places; making everything at once familiar and uncanny. Obsessions and contradictions are at the heart of the film, a journey midway between dreams and visions by a series of enigmatic characters interacting in different scenarios.

Visually dramatic episodes shatter the colonial and the conventional in Sin Wai Kin’s (fka Victoria Sin) stunning exploration of desire, identity and fantasy.
