A year among elephants
Eye to eye with giants






































































Two wildlife filmmakers in southern Africa
We spent a whole year tracking elephants in Botswana and Namibia for our two-parter “Elephants Up Close”.
Within touching distance with giants. We were always very close to the imposing pachyderms. Because it was adventurous, emotional, interesting and exciting, we made an own film about our experiences with the grey giants. For 90 minutes, we will immerse you in the world of elephants, bringing you closer to these magnificent creatures.
We comment on the pictures and give you deep insights into our life as wildlife filmmakers, show you how scenes were created and what tricks we used.
“A Year Among Elephants” is a soulful film to laugh, cry and think about, and it makes for exciting entertainment. Besides the big animals, you also get to know us better.
