Tusker: Brotherhood Of Elephants
For fifty years, time and struggle have etched their story into his tusks - ivory marked with gashes and scars of survival. In seasons of strife, they have been the tools of life: fending off predators, uncovering hidden water, unearthing roots when grass was scarce, and fighting for the chance to procreate. To him, they are not trophies. They are a means of survival. This is the epic journey of a great tusker, a living relic of 34 million years of evolution. Through drought and famine, through the relentless pursuit for his ivory, he has endured. And in enduring, he carries forward not just his ancient bloodline, but also the wisdom that will guide the next generation of giants.

How The Wild Things Sleep
Taglicht
1 x 60' 4K HDR
Everybody does it differently – but everybody does it: enormous elephants do it for only two hours a day, while tiny bees snooze up to 10 hours daily. Some birds spend 300 days a year up in the air and sleep on the wing. HOW THE WILD THINGS SLEEP explores some of the most extreme sleepers on Earth, as scientists investigate and dig deeper into understanding this incredibly important part of life. How do animals deal with sleep deprivation or the danger of being unconscious while predators roam? These are some of the baffling questions tackled in HOW THE WILD THINGS SLEEP.

The Great Elephant Tale
Merx International
1 x 60’ 4K+HD
The film follows three elephant herds in three very different African environments; the lush abundance of the Okavango delta (Botswana), the wilds of the remote Lower Zambezi valley (Zambia) and the harsh terrain of the Hoanib Desert (Namibia). In each habitat we follow a different character. A mother guides her family to find food, water and shelter, a young calf navigates the dangers of her new environment and a bull pursues a breeding herd as he attempts to extend his bloodline. The three narratives intertwine as we compare and contrast the challenges faced by the same species in vastly different scenarios, while bitesize factual sequences are placed to give the viewer a deeper understanding of what makes elephants tick.

Lev fulfils a life-long ambition to get as close to these magnificent creatures as possible, and gains powerful insight into this still mysterious journey – one that the elephants have done for millennia, but no person has yet done on foot. Lev witnesses elephants under increasing threat from both natural and man-made dangers. Along the way, he also meets with locals and gets their uncensored view of whether humans and elephants can ever live in harmony. While millions of elephants once roamed across Africa, that number is now dwindling, and by 2040 these iconic creatures could all be gone.
