Futur Drei is a coming-of-age film by Faraz Shariat , which premiered on February 23, 2020 as part of the Berlin Film Festival and is due to hit German cinemas on September 24, 2020. The autobiographical feature film tells of Parvis, the son of two exiled Iranians, who takes everything his family does for him in Germany for granted and has to do his social hours in a housing project for refugees. There he met the Iranian siblings Banafshe and Amon.
action
Parvis is the son of exiled Iranians and lives with his parents in Hildesheim. He enjoys freedoms that many German young people can only dream of. His parents accept that he's gay, and he plays with Grindr -Dates and long club nights. After a shoplifting, he has to do his 120 social hours as a translator in a housing project for refugees. There he is eyed strangely at first, because he looks strange with his bleached hair and is not very skilled at some tasks. He also takes part in the talks in which a decision is made about the further stay and deliberately translates incorrectly in order to prevent their deportation.
He meets the Iranian refugee Amon, who is waiting there with his sister Banafshe for their residence permits. Amon is told by the other young men in the project not to have any contact with the eccentric. Amon does not immediately understand that Parvis is not a resident of the project, but only there for his community hours. Amon shares a room with his sister, who quickly notices that her brother likes Parvis and helps out a little so that they get closer. After a night of partying, the three of them go to his home together. Amon helps the completely drunk Parvis bathe, and a first kiss follows. Banafshe learns from her mother the background to her escape and what the new beginning in Germany was like for her back then. Later she tells her son that they built all of this in Germany just for him.
A project member recommends Banafshe a protective marriage because she is threatened with deportation and offers to marry her immediately. The day Parvis last worked on the project, Banafshe was warned that the police were on their way to arrange for her to be deported. She wants to leave the project, but Parvis takes her and her brother out of town first.
production
"Shariat sends his alter ego Parvis on a journey of knowledge, on which he not only becomes aware of his roots, but also uses them to reclaim his identity."
The director was Faraz Shariat , who also wrote the script together with Paulina Lorenz . It is Shariat's feature film debut after a documentary and a few short films and commercials. He also produced the film with the film collective JÜNGLINGE, which they founded. The story the film tells is auto-fictional, but has strong biographical traits. He too grew up as an Iranian migrant in the second generation in Germany, and Shariat himself had to do social hours in 2015 because of shoplifting in a Hildesheim hotel, where underage refugees were housed. Because there was a lack of interpreters, he had to translate official or doctor talks that dealt with existentially important questions. Suddenly he became aware of his privileges as a native of Germany, said Shariat.
Regarding the film's title, Shariat explained: “We thought about how to develop a cinematic language that dares to shape a society instead of reproducing it. A language with which one speaks about the future, but which does not actually exist: The next tense would be the future tense three. "
The film received production grants from the Hamburg Schleswig-Holstein Film Funding in the amount of 20,000 euros and from Nordmedia - Film- und Mediengesellschaft Niedersachsen / Bremen mbH in the amount of 100,000 euros and from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media a distribution grant of 20,000 euros.
Eidin Jalali , who plays the role of Amon, makes his film debut with Future Three . Jürgen Vogel can be seen in a supporting role as project employee Jan, who advises Banafshe to a protective marriage and immediately brings himself into play as a candidate.
Shariat had received around 40 hours of video material from his father with recordings from his childhood in the 1990s, some of which he incorporated into his film. The home video recordings used at the beginning show the director as a little boy dancing in a Sailor Moon costume. His father and mother, Mashid and Nasser, can also be seen in the VHS material and also play the main character's parents in the film.
The shooting took place on 29 days between August 6 and September 10, 2018 in Hildesheim, here in the Löseke culture factory or at the Tonkuhle, in Hanover, Gronau and Göttingen.
From February 23, 2020, the film was presented in the Panorama section of the Berlin Film Festival and celebrated its premiere here, where it was also shown as part of the Teddy Awards , a separate competition. In early July 2020 the film was presented online at Galway Film Fleadh. From the end of August 2020, it was presented in competition at the virtual Outfest Los Angeles and at the Molodist International Film Festival , which took place in a hybrid version. In September 2020 it will be part of the Queer Film Night program. In mid-September 2020 it will be presented at the Leipzig Film Art Fair. A cinema release in Germany is planned for September 24, 2020. At the end of September 2020 it will also be shown at the LGBT Film Festival in Poland, at the end of November, beginning of December 2020 as part of Crossing Europe Extracts, a coronavirus pandemic-related alternative program with online offer and a series of physical events in the cinema.

Reviews
Sofia Glasl from the Süddeutsche Zeitung writes that Faraz Shariat is sending his alter ego Parvis on a journey of discovery, on which he not only becomes aware of his roots, but also uses them to reclaim his identity. He charged the classic story of the coming-of-age film with self-empowerment: “This is an important turnaround in German film - away from narratives of dismay and feel-good comedies that either emotionally cannibalize the stories of refugees or migrants or use them as a gag machine . "Migration experiences of three generations communicated with each other in future tense three in vibrating images, and Shariat add home videos from his childhood, Parvis' openly lived sexuality, the single-family house in the provinces, the transit world in the refugee center and wild party nights into an intoxicating maelstrom of emotions, experiences and Aesthetics together.
Andreas Busche from the Tagesspiegel writes how the film finds a poetry out of images and language without falling into the subject of the problem film, is extraordinary for a do-it-yourself debut. He speaks of a double coming-out, a queer and a cultural one.
Sophia Zessnik from the online magazine ze.tt thinks the result is impressive, not only because of the multi-layered perspectives, which show that German film can also do anything other than tell heteronormative stories of white figures, the visual aesthetics also make future three extraordinary: “Half a music clip , semi-documentary home video, the film grows during the action - until it becomes a real art-house masterpiece in the end. "
