Amma, Do Giraffe's Cry? (Kartikeya Saxena / India, Czech Republic / 26 mins / Hindi, English, Czech / 2026) Trailer
A son asks a simple question - do animals feel too?
An enclosure glass at Prague Zoo divides the world between the humans and the animals. On the free side, Kartikeya is in a conversation with his Zoologist mother, finding answers to mysterious layers he believes the animals carry. This film exposes how our human-centricity shapes our reality, and invites us to see the animal world, once again, like children.
At ALT EFF 2026, we are meeting the times.
When the world feels like it is coming apart, we look to art as witness, joy as resistance, and cinema as a way home to each other.
This film is one of many stories we are bringing together this year at the All Living Things Environmental Film Festival, December 3 to 13, 2026.
