ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM

Beautifully produced and information, this documentary opens our eyes to an issue that many of us are unaware of.

Elephant in the Room highlights the severity of man-animal conflict and presents a real life case that the world should feel proud of and emulate. The film gives us a first hand example of how a small village migrated from their ancestral village in order to preserve the elephants who first lived there. The young daughter is amazed and delighted when she realizes that her village left their ancestral lands for the sake of the elephants, which is a great example of how elephants and humans can live alongside each other peacefully.

Wonderful and colorful video; I love the opening scene of the villagers all dancing together and celebrating the upcoming birth. I love how the story of the elephants is told in animation. And, most importantly of all, I love how the villagers resolved this story and how their leader recognized that it was the villagers who had encroached on the elephant's territory, not the other way around. This is a wonderful tale that gives an inspiring message to the world.

The film's message is about how man and animals can live in harmony by paying attention to each other's needs.

I give Elephant in the Room 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it to ages 8 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

Elephant in the Room attempts to highlight the severity of the man-animal conflict and present a real life case that the world should feel proud of and emulate. The film is set in a small village called Sankarapally, along the banks of a river in Wayanad district of Kerala. Thamara, a young mother, is pregnant with her second child. Their family is engaged in some light hearted festivities to welcome the child. Thamara's first born, a lively 9-year old, suddenly comes across the viral news clipping of an elephant dying of the pineapple bomb. Kanni is deeply impacted by it and asks why the elephants aren't given the similar love and affection that humans are. Thamara narrates a true story of their own village which migrated from their ancestral village a decade back putting an end to their perennial 'Elephant Problem.' The tale is a story of such a unique but lesser known phenomenon, where collaboration along resolves such a sensitive but dangerous problem such as those that ail the entire world today. Kanni is amazed with the story and delighted to hear what her village did to protect the elephants.
