Join us as we return to e-flux Screening Room for an afternoon of film and conversation featuring a screening of With an Acre, the third chapter in the Groundwork series. The series follows the conceptual development and field research of architects exploring alternative modes of practice in an age of ecological crisis.

The film is introduced by Joshua Frank, film director of the Groundwork series, followed by a conversation with Lukas Brasiskis, Nick Axel, Francesco Garutti, and Ella den Elzen that explores the use of film as a tool for curatorial research.

With an Acre (2025, 45 minutes) follows architect Carla Juaçaba as she develops a museum and community space in solidarity with a collective of smallholder farmers in Minas Gerais, Brazil, resisting extractive industrial agriculture. Inspired by the form of highway billboards that mark the extended rural landscape in the region, Juaçaba proposes a landmark on an elevated plantation overlooking the town of Nepomuceno.
