The future does not wait, it is already pressing into the now: Mousonturm's eco-friendly festival “Future is Now” presents the world premieres of two up-and-coming young artists.

In “Sew Me to Your Pillow, Maman”, Raha Dehghani Vinicheh engages in a dialogue with her sister about as yet unpublished texts by her mother - a touching portrait of solidarity, self-determination, sisterhood and the power of words. With “Falling Loquats from the Mouths of a Thousand Sparrows”, Larry Bonćhaka examines belonging and community and the role that music plays in this. For this, he has assembled hymns from pop and subcultures into a musical staged compilation.

In addition, there will be workshops, a flea market and a special talk format: Tilman Aumüller and Christopher Krause have developed a unique practice to train the imagination. Together with the audience, worlds are devised and “played out” in so-called world-building games. Experts from the fields of climate and transformation will also join in the game, because true to the title “Future is Now”, the festival will be produced in an emission-neutral way and thus as climate-friendly as possible.
