About the film…
Laos was once referred to as Lane Xang, or "The Land of a Million Elephants.” There are now less than 1000 elephants remaining. It is believed that the Lao elephant will be extinct within 30 years. An artistic and experimental feature-length documentary film, Elephant Keeper goes behind the scenes at an elephant conservation center in Laos, providing a rare and intimate glimpse into the daily life of a Mahout. A snapshot into the life of a man’s struggles and triumphs to preserve a dying way of life, the narrative explores issues surrounding extinction and conservation, as themes of culture and identity, economic empowerment, and environmental stewardship emerge.
