Synopsis:
In October 2008 ten elephants were captured in Southern Zimbabwe. They were sent to Sondelani Lodge in Southern Matabele. The elephant were captured in order to break them in for elephant-back safaris. Caring people intervened and the elephants were rescued. Nine Little Elephants is a “true life†documentary. The emotions that were captured over the nearly one year of filming make this a compelling and at times heart-wrenching story. The producers had access to all the drama that went into the rehabilitation of the elephants. The hope and despair of the elephants were documented every step of the way through out their arduous rehabilitation journey. The climax of the documentary left a test screening audience in tears.
