Reteti Elephant Sanctuary
SYNOPSIS
Reteti Elephant Sanctuary is the first ever community-owned and run elephant sanctuary in Africa. This oasis where orphans grow up, learning to be wild so that one day they can rejoin their herds, is as much about the people as it is about elephants. It’s a powerful story about the changing relationship between people and the animals they are protecting. Directed by Ami Vitale, produced in collaboration with Sprout Films.
