Synopsis
Hard-living, macho movie director John Wilson arrives in the 1950s Zimbabwe to prepare for his next film. Accompanied by screenwriter Pete Verrill, Wilson becomes far more interested in shooting an elephant than getting ready for the shoot. Determined, Wilson moves production to a village where a native hunter helps him in his quest. Obsessed with this goal even as filming grows ever more chaotic, the director begins to question the ethics and origins of his fixation.
