Ideias Para Mudar o Mundo
Original six-episode docuseries for Canal Off and Globoplay.
After launching an entertainment line on Canal Off with the irreverent format of Parque do Ítalo – nominated for Best Sports Entertainment at the New York Festivals 2021 – and a successful delivery, we were challenged to create and produce Off's first nonfiction series in which sport takes a back seat. With an innovative format blending animation and documentary, the project introduces an animated character developed especially for the series: Rute, a surfer and environmental activist, who explains the historical context and presents the data and realities behind each episode's theme.
The series raises an important question about humanity's relationship with the planet and is divided into 6 episodes with central themes: Alternative Economies; Food for All; Water for Life; Sustainable Housing; Sustainable City; This Is Not Trash. In each episode, we meet 4 different people who are changing the world in their surroundings and communities through actions focused on collective and environmental well-being. The stories work as 4 short films, woven together by the animation.
Every character documentary was 100% scripted and planned scene by scene. To that end, director Leila Savary invited Thiago Dantas, a writer experienced in a wide range of documentary formats and languages for television and a socially engaged person attuned to social issues. The episodes were shot in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Santa Catarina and Bahia, with cinematography by PH Costa Blanca. From concept to delivery, it took two years of extensive research, study, production and time on the road, across some 50 shooting days. Black people, people from the urban periphery and people outside beauty standards take up space in this production and lead the conversation. These are characters who go against the grain of the system, fighting for social and environmental transformation.
The series is currently airing on Canal Off, and the episodes are already available on Globoplay.
SYNOPSIS
Sustainability is not a label, nor a brand. It is a way of relating to the planet. But, in practice, is it possible to live sustainably without being privileged? In search of an answer, we sought out ordinary people who are making a difference, proposing initiatives for a fairer, more sustainable planet. With inspiring stories, Ideias para mudar o mundo opens paths to a better life for all of us and invites reflection on the era of regeneration.
