For a decade, conservation biologist Steve Boyes has been in search of a mysterious elusive herd of Ghost Elephants in the highlands of Angola, a wooded plateau — virtually uninhabited, but in size as large as England. He sets out with master trackers from Namibia, the best remaining in the world, but there is a deep underlying question: would it not be better to keep these gigantic elephants rather as a dream, as ghosts, as the White Whale, than finding them in reality? “Ghost Elephants resides in the intersection of science and lyrical reverie — Herzog’s treasured terrain” –Lisa Kennedy, The New York Times. Followed by a 30-minute, pre-recorded Q&A with the director.
