Elephants Dream

About the film

Proog leads the younger Emo through a vast, dreamlike machine whose rooms follow no logic. Danger waits around every corner, and Proog insists that every part of this world is flawless. Emo grows less and less sure that it exists at all.

Elephants Dream is strange, dark and open to interpretation: a film about two people who see the same world in completely different ways, and how far someone will go to defend their version of reality.
