Devastating news from #theelephantqueen outreach and education team, who spent 2 years preparing the truck and outreach materials and had just started an 8 month tour to take the film to off-grid communities around Kenya. #morethanafilm # MiniNaWewe🐘

Very sad to report #theelephantqueen mobile cinema truck was involved in an accident on the way to a school screening. Luckily no one was badly hurt but the custom truck is a write-off. The whole team is devastated. @ste_kenya @BSFImpact @TEQmovie @wildlifedirect @markdeeble1
