Streaming video - 2017
A successful Bangkok architect in the midst of a midlife crisis is reunited with an elephant he knew growing up. The two embark on a road trip to the man's childhood home in the idyllic Thai countryside. Along the way, they meet a colorful cast of characters, including a pair of nonplussed local police officers, a forlorn transgender sex worker, and a mysteriously wise drifter. As the encounters mount and the bond between man and elephant deepens, filmmaker Kirsten Tan weaves a strikingly universal tale in this feature debut. Winner of the Screenwriting Award for World Cinema - Dramatic at the **Sundance Film Festival** and the Big Screen Award at the **Rotterdam Film Festival**. "*A joy. Warm yet unsentimental.*"— Maggie ...Lee, ***Variety*** "T*he thinking person’s feel-good film of the summer.*" - Christopher Kompanek, ***The Washington Post***
