Futurist cinema has always talked about the present, but rarely has it done so in such a transparent way. From a film about the possibility of resurrecting the dead to a traditional'remake' of 'Star Wars', several titles presented at the Berlinale speak of an imminent future that is very similar to today's world.
They project societies marked by conflicts between opposing groups and by nostalgia for a better time that we did not know how to appreciate as it deserved. The film festival reacted by imagining paths that seem impossible, until the day the world decides to follow them.
