PROMOBILDE Cemetery 1

After a devastating earthquake, Nga, an old elephant and probably the last of its species, and Sanra his mahout are about to embark on a journey to find the mythical elephant’s graveyard. When a group of poachers starts following them, a journey of discovery and mourning starts. Under mysterious circumstances, the poachers die one after the other, while the spectator becomes the only protagonist on a sonic journey into the cemetery and beyond.
