Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow starts where most films about homeless kids end – the day after they are taken in. We assume it's a happy ending but what really happens next? This film tackles the emotional and ethical challenges that arise when a determined, idealistic and thoroughly unprepared American cinematographer decides to support three Mongolian orphans. Told over the span of six years, Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow is a deeply personal film and an honest portrait of how storytellers and their characters impact each other. The filmmaker and central character, Martina, grapples with what it means to intervene in a meaningful way. Ultimately, she has to ask herself who is helping whom.
The film addresses the messiness of love and belonging and the universal experience of parent-child relationships – while at the same time, Martina questions the power imbalance and accountability that arise when we look at and document.
