- Abstract:
'Ganapati' examines the issues of cruelty to animals, focusing on the treatment of elephants. Sections were filmed on location in Kenya, India, and Thailand. Much reference is made to the respect paid to elephants by some spiritual practices, where they are considered to be deities. Older moving image footage is incorporated, which shows a circus elephant being killed, and performing elephants in film, television advertisements, and nature shows. A variety of text sources are quoted in the form of voiceovers, including works by Rudyard Kipling, Rainer Maria Rilke, Chief Seattle, Federico Garcia Lorca, and original writings by Daniel Reeves. Music includes Sufi improvisations by Nezih Uzel and Kudsi Ergunner, works by the Burundi artists, and a xylophone solo by Htaw Pine. Daniel Reeves provides additional synthesizer music.
