Why Not? (2026)

Centering on the bond between Maria Prata and her grandmother Laura Góes, this documentary asks why so many people sidestep the climate crisis even as information abounds and global disasters keep unfolding. Alongside conversations with notable voices who have grappled with the issue in different ways, the film weaves in the pair’s strolls through a century-old garden planted by the family matriarch in the mountains of Rio de Janeiro state.
