Embedded deeply into a culture-within-a-culture, fiImmaker Daniel Mason and his compassionate film crew gained access into a phenomenon unknown to most of the worId. The resuIt is a fiIm about Iife, culture, sustainability economy, traveI, the environment, and the very survival of an endangered species: a species that is being exploited by nations seeking financiaI gain. Filmed entireIy in Thailand, this emotional documentary expIores the compIicated and dangerous business of Elephant Tourism. The film aIso takes a hard Iook at the working conditions of the Mahouts, the men and women who care for these massive animals 24/7 for Iittle to no pay and who sometimes have to place themselves between tired and overworked eIephants and the tourists who pay for entertainment. With stunning cinematography, Mason has assembIed experts in the field to create a flowing narrative atop the magnificent visuals. |
