SYNOPSIS: Elephant’s Dream är en film som följer arbetarna och tre statligt ägda institutioner i Kinshasa (Kongo), den tredje största staden i Afrika. Filmen väver samman historier om kontorsbiträdet i det förfallna postkontoret, två kollegor på järnvägsstationen och en grupp brandmän på stadens enda brandstation.
Dessa institutioner sjunger på sista versen och filmen visar med både poesi och empati en stats nedgång. Men vi får även bevittna dom små men uppenbara stunderna av förändring och revolution, som också speglar vad som just nu är på gång i västvärlden.
Demokratiska republiken Kongo är en stat som mestadels blir porträtterad med rapporter om våld, sexuella övergrepp, rebeller och brottlighet. I Elephant's Dream tar regissören Kristof Bilsen oss till en plats bakom dom vanliga bilderna och ger oss en poetisk och medkännande inblick i ett land i övergångsstadiet.
“Elephant’s Dream masterfully creates a dreamlike listlessness,
sad and funny, that gently hints at great historical tragedy. A beautiful film.”
Joshua Oppenheimer (Act of Killing / The Look of Silence)

LANGUAGUE: French with english subtitles
Elephant’s Dream is a portrait about three State-owned institutions and their workers in DR Congo. The interwoven stories of a female post office clerk in the dilapidated central post office, two colleagues at the railway station, and the group of firemen in the only fire station provide insight into their daily lives and survival in the third largest city of Africa, Kinshasa.
Although these three government-owned institutions are running on their last legs, the film allows for a surprisingly poetic and empathetic look at a State in decline. Yet, it also makes us witness the small but apparent moments of change and revolution, and at the same time functioning as a mirror to what is happening in the Western world.
The Republic of Congo is a country mainly represented by stories of violence, rape, rebels and crime. In Elephant’s Dream, director Kristof Bilsen takes us beyond these usual reports and provides poetic and compassionate insight into a country in transition.
“Elephant’s Dream masterfully creates a dreamlike listlessness,
sad and funny, that gently hints at great historical tragedy. A beautiful film.”
