Tell the jury about the choice of music track.

The choice of music and the idea for the film actually came together. We wanted to tell the story of time travel, and to do this we decided to use the music and iconography of a worldwide cult movie: Back to the Future. The song we used was the main theme, the most epic and iconic of the whole movie soundtrack.

Write a short summary of what happens in the film

It is a story about time travel, one about a young couple from the ‘60s who are transported into the year 2018 and into a new 500X. Accompanied by the notes of the music of Back to the Future, our two protagonists discover with astonishment the future, its technologies and also all the main features of the car. The film is rounded of by an amusing and unexpected finale featuring star Christopher Lloyd.

Cultural/Context information for the jury
