We Never Asked for This

On Christmas Eve, Charlie finds a disoriented cockatiel by a river and brings it inside. Little do they know, this bird has its own agenda – and nobody seems to notice something strange has started falling from the sky. Prompted by the horrific 2019 bushfires, writer/director Ella Lawry weaves a sardonic story that skewers performative environmentalism and privileged self-gratification.
