在这部时光机纪录片/家庭/奇幻片中,当深具影响力的中国艺术家“马良”发现其成就斐然的父亲京剧名导“马科”正深受阿兹海默症之苦,他便邀请父亲参与自己雄心蓬勃的项目一同合作：一场难忘、神奇、自传式的哑剧表演，
其中包括一只名为“父亲的时光机”的真人大小机械木偶。透过一同创作此剧,两个男人抢在生命流逝且记忆永远消逝前，直视死亡。
When influential Chinese artist Ma Liang (a.k.a. Maleonn) realizes that his father Ma Ke, an accomplished Peking Opera director, is suffering from Alzheimer's disease, he invites his father to collaborate on his most ambitious project to date - a haunting, magical, autobiographical stage performance featuring life-size mechanical puppets called \"Papa's Time Machine\". Through the creation of this play, the two men confront their mortality before time runs out and memories are lost forever.
