Fred Pellerin wrote the short story The Time Thief in 2007, adapting it into a feature film years later.
Fred Pellerin wrote the story L'Arracheuse de temps in 2007 shortly after the death of his father.[11] On March 30, 2016, it was announced that a feature film adaptation of the story had been in the works from the production company Attraction Images.[12] While working on the 2017 film Barefoot at Dawn with director Francis Leclerc, Pellerin wrote part of the initial screenplay for the film.[13] On January 18, 2019, Leclerc revealed that he would direct the film, from a now-completed screenplay written by Pellerin.[14] On April 8, 2019, the film's screenplay was submitted to SODEC, who announced on December 16, 2019, that they would be funding the film.[15][16]
Filming
Filming for The Time Thief was divided into two filming blocks; the first began on October 13, 2020, in Saint-Armand, in the Eastern Townships of Quebec.[2][17] Filming for the first block, which was mainly focused on shooting exterior scenes, continued in areas around the municipality of Montérégie, and concluded on October 30, 2020.[18][19] Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Fred Pellerin was not allowed to visit the film's set until October 15, 2020.[20] The second filming block took place in April 2021 in areas around Montreal, with the intentions of shooting the film's interior scenes in a studio.[4][21]

The Time Thief was theatrically released by Les Films Séville in the Canadian province of Quebec on November 19, 2021.[21]
