    • Synopsis
    • Four stoners, three mobsters, five vegans, four hunters and a million reasons to free one elephant. Roy Arnie (Woody Harrelson) has a dream. One day he will run his own circus and conquer the world. The key to his dreams is Jimmy the elephant, star attraction of the Circus Stromowski but also a total junkie. All Roy Arnie has to do is to free Jimmy and his dreams will come true. But his plans are jeopardised as the elephant escapes off to the moors. Roy Arnie and his stoned friends take up pursue, but they are not alone. An epic farcical journey ensues where the stoners, animal activists, the Lappish Mafia and an alcohol fuelled hunting party all compete to “free” the drugged up Jimmy. Now the only thing that can thwart their plans is a strangely compassionate moose…
