About This Movie

Last Days (2014) is an intriguing piece, blending animation with a documentary style to tackle a really serious topic—the tragic decline of African elephants. The visuals are striking, utilizing a somewhat surreal animation that captures both the beauty of these creatures and the horror of their plight. The pacing allows for reflection, which is essential given the heavy themes of poaching and the ivory trade. It doesn't shy away from the grim realities, yet there's a certain poetry in how it presents the elephants’ world.
