Elephant Dreams

Directed by Martha Davis
Canada, 1987 (documentary, 17 minutes, English)

Film Description:
"Martha Davis's Elephant Dreams [deals] with the mythological role played by animals in human storytelling. Far from being our inferiors, the film—through five storytellers and myriad haunting animal images—suggests that the non-human world, and our relationship to it, has an almost inexpressible hold over how we define ourselves."
