Synopsis
Documentary that follows Prajna Chowta, a young Indian ethnologist trained in the West, and her two companions, Mujeeb Kahn and Surendra Varma, as they travel by elephant, from Assam (India) to Northern Burma (now Myanmar) to find out what is left of the wild elephant herds in this remote corner of the world. No outsiders have come here for nearly 50 years due to war, political strife and closed borders, and although scientists speculate that wild elephants still roam these forests, no one knows for sure.
