Elephant, Elephant, Elephant! an immersive animation experience, hand drawn into a 360o environment, it plays with our anthropomorphism of elephants, initially delighting the audience with the clumsy elefunks performing incongruous circus tricks to the pompous music of the Thai Elephant Orchestra; they then transform back into 'real' elephants, whose stereotypical actions taken from zoo strangely appear like they are dancing and greeting each other. The illusion broken, the suspension of disbelief is exposed it signals the beginning of the elephant's poetic escape leaving us alone in the dark.
