    • Synopsis
    • Elephant’s Dream provides a poetic and compassionate insight into a country in transition, as seen through the microcosm of three institutions: a rail station, the central post office, and the only existing fire station in the third largest city in Africa, Kinshasa, DR Congo. At times surreal, at times hopeful, this film reveals a truly surprising perspective on lives lived beyond chaos.
