Some of it’s peaceful, some of it’s far from it, but in the 21st-century there’s been more to rally against than ever before, wherever it may be. Dear Future Children follows three young rebels with a cause in three countries thousands of miles apart.

"A film about the next generation, made by the next generation." Dartmouth Films has unveiled an official trailer for the documentary film Dear Future Children, which premiered at the Cph:dox and Hot Docs Film Festivals earlier this year. It's opening in the UK this fall, but still doesn't have any US release set yet. Strangely, because this film looks great! Made by a young German filmmaker, Dear Future Children follows three young female activists in Hong Kong, Chile, Uganda as they cope with the immense personal impacts of their activism. Rayan protests for social justice in Chile, Pepper fights for democracy in Hong Kong and Hilda battles the devastating consequences of climate change in Uganda.

By facing fear, they transform it into something else entirely.
