Futuro Beach opens in Los Angeles

Karim Aïnouz's visually stunning PRAIA DO FUTURO

Opens at Sundance Sunset Cinemas in West Hollywood

Starting Friday April 17th, 2015


★★★★★ "Brilliant filmmaking. Visually tense and ceaselessly exhilarating.
Jesuita Barbosa is a revelation."-- Georges Aintablian

 
When Brazilian lifeguard Donato (Wagner Moura) fails to save a swimmer from drowning, he seeks out the victim's friend Konrad (Clemens Schick), a handsome German biker. The two men begin a passionate affair, and Donato soon decides to follow Konrad to Berlin. Years later, their seemingly peaceful life is threatened by a visitor from Donato's past. Director Karim Aïnouz (MADAME SATÃ) delivers a visually stunning, emotionally resonant tale about three men struggling across oceans of love, loss, and heartache.
