- **Event Name**: Ghost Elephants at the Rio Theatre
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 01 Apr, 2026 at 06:20 pm – Wed, 01 Apr, 2026 at 08:20 pm (-07:00)
- **Event Description**: For over a decade, Dr. Steve Boyes, conservation biologist and National Geographic Explorer, has been in search of a mysterious, elusive herd of Ghost Elephants in the highlands of Angola, deep within its forests. From acclaimed director Werner Herzog (“Grizzly Man”), GHOST ELEPHANTS follows Boyes on an epic journey as he sets out with some of the best master trackers in the world, in pursuit of an animal long believed to be a myth.

“‘Ghost Elephants’ resides in the intersection of science and lyrical reverie — Werner Herzog’s treasured terrain. Here, the filmmaker focuses less on the elephants and more on the pursuers, the dreamers.” (New York Times)

“Werner Herzog has got a perfect subject to explore the theme of obsession, and it leads to a movie that is absolutely spellbinding.” (Aisle Seat)

“It’s a portrait of obsession that, while gentler than some of Herzog’s other works, is mesmerizing from the first moment to the last, yet another title of note in what remains one of the most incredible filmographies of our time.” (RogerEbert.com)

“‘Ghost Elephants’ is an almost diaristic documentary, eschewing normal pathways for a more esoteric exploration of survival, science, intuition and mortality.” (ScreenRant)

“‘Ghost Elephants’ steps outside the boundaries of science-based nature docs. It makes for a fantastic story.” (The Hollywood Reporter)
