Where Elephants Go - ENFF
Whimsical, unpredictable and only a bit artificial! This film is proof of how capable we are of lying to ourselves and others to make life more bearable for all.
Nine-year-old Leni is witty and wise for her age and quite a match for the homeless intellectual Marcel, who is a 23-year-old child. Leni's mother Magda refuses to accept the failure of Leni's medical treatment and rebuffs Marcel's friendship, even as he and Leni demonstrate that every step through life can be a joyous adventure.
De negenjarige Leni is pienter en wijs voor haar leeftijd en kan prima wedijveren met de dakloze intellectueel Marcel, die een 23-jarige kinderlijke geest heeft. Leni's moeder, Magda, weigert het mislukken van Leni's medische behandeling te accepteren en wijst Marcels vriendschap af, ook al laten hij en Leni zien dat elke stap in het leven een vreugdevol avontuur kan zijn.
