What kind of time-travel story is this?

Time travel drives much of the story.

Meets the archive’s time-travel criteria. The mechanism is classified as Mechanical.

Why the archive makes this assessment (spoilers)

Confirmed 7/10: an elevator in the former German embassy takes a young Warsaw couple to August 1939, the Nazis try to exploit the portal, and the couple kidnap Hitler before Przemek is stranded in 1939. Travel between eras drives the comedy, though reviews criticise weak links between the two settings.

How Titan works

Titan combines the archive’s quality, audience and legacy base with the significance of time travel. It is an index, not a score out of 100, and is distinct from the FMV archive’s scoring model.

Titan = base × [0.20 + 0.80 × (time-travel score ÷ 10)²]

This film: 33.40 base × 59.2% weighting.

Partial inputs flag incomplete source metadata. Provisional weighting flags a time-travel assessment that remains uncertain; it receives no additional confidence penalty.
