Flora es un elefante de circo que ya no puede realizar sus trucos. La noche antes de que la sacrifiquen, la hija de 14 años del dueño del circo, Dawn, saca a Flora del circo. Todo lo que se interpone entre ellos y la seguridad de la reserva de elefantes es doscientos kilómetros de bosques, un río furioso, dos cazadores de elefantes y el miedo a no llegar.

Mexican director Enrique Begne's drama Two Embraces (AKA Dos Abrazos, 2007) follows four lonely and disenfranchised urbanites in contemporary Mexico City: a preteen boy under tremendous emotional strain, the pretty cashier with whom he is infatuated, an enraged and embittered cabbie, and the estranged daughter of one of his fares. Per the film's title, these characters pair off, finding unexpected hope and salvation in one another.
