## Executive Summary & Cultural Positioning

Only Good Things is a 2025 film set in the rural region of Batalha dos Neves in Catalão, Brazil, during the year 1984. The landscape of the area is defined by large crop pastures, a small number of farms, and the São Marcos River, which divides the region in half. The narrative centers on Antonio, a man who lives a solitary and isolated life while maintaining his small farm.
