Synopsis:
Cirkus performs an astonishing animal wrangling act for WWF. Water is precious and we humans have a heavy impact on its availability. With this in mind Human Cannonball Romain Borrel came up with this simple but poignant storyline of an Elephant and Giraffe fighting over a bottle of water in the African heat.
