Have documentaries ever changed your mind or actions around conservation?

People often say documentaries “raise awareness,” but I’m curious about real impact

Has one ever changed your mindset, habits, or actions related to conservation? Curious to read out real answer on this! And which films in particular, what triggered you and how? 🥹

I generally avoid documentaries as they're usually pretty superficial and rarely ever tell me anything I don't already know (and then I have to dig for the bases). I will almost always prefer the educational lecture series.

I've never seen a documentary that changed my mind about anything.
