Ghost Elephants
“An epic search for a mythical giant.”
Documentary
In Angola's mist-shrouded highlands, three KhoiSan master trackers embark on a spiritual quest to rediscover the legendary "ghost elephants" of Lisima, creatures presumed lost but remembered in ancestral trance, ritual, and memory.
VIBE
A deeply spiritual and meditative journey into the heart of ancestral memory. It feels like a hushed reverence for the natural world, a wistful quest for the lost, and a profound connection to the earth.
