N2  - This film follows two men, both of whom have set out on a quest to build their own time machines. Rob Niosi is a stop motion animator who has spent the last eleven years constructing a full-scale replica of the time machine prop from the 1960 film adaptation of H.G. Wells’ novella, The Time Machine. Ron Mallett is a physicist from the University of Connecticut who was also inspired by H.G. Wells’ story. However, Ron’s machine isn’t a replica. Dr.Mallett believes he has figured out how to build a real, working time machine.. Through these stories, HOW TO BUILD A TIME MACHINE investigates our fascination with time travel and attempt to figure out what’s so appealing about reliving the past and foreseeing the future. The film examines the power of cinema and the ways in which science fiction storytelling has inspired real life scientific breakthroughs.. Official Selection at Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival and International Film Festival Rotterdam.. "An enchanting and whimsical tale of the lengths men go to explore the unknown, the sort Wells himself might be proud to call his own." - Barry Hertz, Globe and Mail
