Description
On the plains of Zimbabwe, a new-born elephant watched her family being brutally slaughtered. She was the only one spared. Terrified and bewildered, she was transported to America to be sold. There she met Bob Norris, the original "Marlboro Man," appearing on billboards across the world and working as a real cowboy on his ranch in Colorado. He felt an enormous empathy with this damaged, vulnerable creature and adopted her. This is the story of their experiences together.
