Birmingham's Mockingbird Cinema hosted the European premiere of Chinese comedy-drama It's My Time, about a troublemaking old lady who enters the world of speedcubing - solving Rubik's cubes as quickly as possible. We remark upon the various ways it makes the competitions exciting, its range of themes and its ability to treat them with both levity and gravity, and the contradiction between its subtextual and explicit messages.

Recorded on 2nd October 2026.
