Elephant Skin
2009

Although the film shows people in miserable surroundings, they prove themselves to be loving, strong and caring. It takes a contemporary view of a current topic and draws our attention to possibilities of life we believed lost.

Directed by:
2008

In a short and humorous way the film shows how the unspoken takes on form, inflicts injury and is overcome.
