Why attend

In his latest opus, award winning director Werner Herzog follows conservation biologist Steve Boyes, in his search to prove the existence of the mysterious, perhaps mythical, herd of ghost elephants in the highlands of Angola.

Session Description

“After meeting Steve Boyes, an unexpected project that felt like the hunt for Moby Dick, the White Whale, came at me with great urgency,” Werner Herzog said in a statement. “Like many of my films, this is an exploration of dreams, of imagination — weighed against reality. The film took me to what the local tribesmen call the Land at the End of the Earth.” Ghost Elephants was premiered at the Venice Film Festival. Director Werner Herzog, as well as Steve Boyes and Kellman Costa, will meet the audience following the movie screening.
