"The Elephant Whisperers" is a charming little film that is ideal for the short documentary category. I wouldn't want to watch a full-length feature film on the subject, but it all works pretty well in just under 40 minutes. At its core, this documentary is about an Indian couple who take care of young, orphaned elephants. The documentary captivates with beautiful images, likeable protagonists, and a heartwarming story. I wholeheartedly recommend the film, especially to anyone who enjoys animal documentaries.

A timeless documentary that captures the audience's soul by a breezy score,an excellent screenplay and the relationship between a couple and cute elephants. Just watch it if you want to feel good and if you like animals.:sneezing_face: The camera angles,the selection of shots,the beauty of the footage captured in the aerial shots and everywhere in the doc added up beautifully with the soundtrack. The compliance that the caretakers had with the production is something that is a huge blessing,the amount of footage they filmed made it easy to put everything together. The culture of the caretakers is translated and presented very beautifully The marriage scene is so well done. This is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. A simple story made complex by the emotions.
