- Synopsis
- Dispatched to Thailand by his domineering mother (Academy Award winner Ellen Burstyn), the introverted Ollie (Tate Ellington) must do everything he can to bring his dare-devil, prodigal brother (Jonno Roberts) back to the US. But the intoxications of Thailand can be hard to resist, especially when it has a face as beautiful as Lek’s (Florence Faivre in a critically lauded performance). From the producers of the Sundance sensation EAGLE VS SHARK and in the unique voice of director Seth Grossman comes a globally relevant tale of lust, love, jealousy, and finding one's place in the world. A jagged gem, sparkling with astonishing performances, Diego Quemada-Diez’s (21 Grams, Constant Gardener) piercing camera-work, Academy Award nominated Editor Sam Klein’s (The New World, Almost Famous) delicate precision, and Adam Balasz’s heart-wrenching score, all hail THE ELEPHANT KING
