A charming romantic comedy unfolds as a meticulously mannered Duke from 1870s New York finds himself unexpectedly transplanted to the bustling, modern world via a scientist’s untested time portal. Beyond the whimsical “fish out of water” premise, the film delicately contrasts Victorian propriety with 21st-century pragmatism, exploring whether genuine connection can bloom across centuries of societal shifts. It's not merely a tale of falling in love, but a gentle questioning of which era truly values authentic relationships over societal expectations, framed by the anxieties of a looming historical disruption if the Duke remains. The humor is grounded in the Duke’s earnest attempts to navigate modern life while holding fast to his principles, creating a surprisingly heartwarming and contemplative dynamic with a cynical advertising executive.
