Synopse

HYBRID Xiaobin is 17 and doesn't speak a word of Spanish when she arrives in Argentina. While her family live in their own parallel universe, the young woman would like to communicate with her environment and registers for a language course. With each conjugation that she learns, she gains something: a job, friends, love. When Xiaobin starts practising the conditional forms, she starts thinking about her future and gets increasingly involved in the further development of the film's screenplay. The Future Perfect is a clever game of future options and possible identities and is based on a real encounter between the director and the protagonist in a language course.
