Dear Future Children

Very, very good documentary with impressive protagonists.

It totally hits the braveness and the anger which is defining young protest movements all around the world. I was able to learn a lot about the current challenges of young activists and how they have to adjust their lives.

That said, the camerawork and sound post-production is just brilliant!

Definitely worth watching. It saddens me that the Hong Kong and Chile protests feel already forgotten in 2021 (in the US). I hope that this helps people remember. There were so many sacrifices that have already faded into obscurity.

Let's get back from the corona paralysis to the topics that are really imprtant. The question: What kind of world do we want for our children, if not for ourselves? And: are we willing to fight or a world wtrth ro live in? This documentary is at the frontline for democracy, social and climate justice around the world. Three young women, activists sacrificing a lot for the greater goal. Very intense, deep insights into the scene, into police brutality, into our presemce - or future? This film should be watched by everybody - shown at schools, shown in public places, shown on TV, shown everywhere, all over the world.

I saw the film at the 42nd Max Ophüls Prize film festival.

I was blown away by the films access and intensity while keeping all three protagonists at the same level in terms of screentime.

It gives an in-depth insight into the struggles and challenges of young activists from three very different backgrounds while also explaining why they are protesting in the first place.

I was able to connect to the protagonists very well - the Hong Kong story line is the most touching in my opinion.

Brilliant, well-informed work, worth seeing!

DEAR FUTURE CHILDREN is an impressive and stirring film with the aim of offering young activists a platform and carrying their stories into the world. Worth seeing.
