FUTURO BEACH

Short after facing the failure of an attempt to rescue a drowning man, Donato meets Konrad, friend of the victim. Motivated by the circumstances, Donato decides to begin a new life in Berlin, but pieces of his past are coming after him.

A decade-spanning queer epic, Karim Aïnouz’s tactile drama explores three lives morphed by love, displacement, and attempts at reinvention. Capturing the distinctive atmosphere of Fortaleza and Berlin in lush imagery, the film’s cinematography mirrors the characters’ ecstatic highs and somber lows.
