Synopsis
Fleeing from poachers, the small elephant Nana was accidentally saved by a Dai old man. The old man took good care of Nana, healing her scars. Nana gradually shed her fear of humans and became dependent on the old man. However, knowing that Nana ultimately belongs to nature, the old man set her free in the mountains, where the elephant herd lived. Thirty years passed, Nana had become the leader of the elephant herd. Somehow, Nana felt that the old man died. Determinedly, she led the elephant herd on a journey through the mountains, just to offer the final elegy for the old man.
