What happens
A Switch in Time is a 1988 Canadian science-fiction comedy film written and directed by Paul Donovan, starring Tom McCamus, Lori Paton, Jacques Lussier and David Hemblen. It follows Norman, Umberto and Erica, a trio of accidental time travelers who attempt to rebuild their life in early Christian times during the Roman Empire's invasion of Helvetic lands. The film had a troubled production and only received a spotty release. Its belated U.S. home video version was re-titled Norman's Awesome Experience by distributor South Gate Entertainment to ride on the success of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, a film it actually predates.
