With global protests on the rise, DEAR FUTURE CHILDREN is a film about the new generation at the heart of this seismic political shift. We will watch as Rayen protests for social justice in Chile, Pepper fights for democracy in Hong Kong and Hilda battles the devastating consequences of climate change in Uganda. Facing almost impossible odds and grappling with the staggering impact of their activism on their personal lives, we will be asking these three young women why they keep fighting.
Dear Future Children is a German-UK-Austrian co-production led by an award-winning team from fifteen countries. We are a young and tight knit group working collaboratively to overcome challenges and achieve our goals. We have a proven track record of making films about social issues, underrepresented communities, and those fighting a stronger power to facilitate change. Our previous films have been screened at multiple festivals around the world including screenings at the ‘Berlin International Film Festival’ and the ‘European Film Awards’. This project is backed by a team of committed professionals who are giving their all to make this film as powerful as it can be.
