Description
This poster is a an illustration of a giant white elephant. He holds a round orange sign in his trunk, curled up to the side of his face, with the title of the film on it. Two tiny birds stand on top of the sign. On the elephant's right is a small boy in a yellow shirt, who holds a sting that is tied to the elephant. He has a white dotted thought bubble next to him with a red heart in it. They stand in front of a village on the green, with a small church and a few low buildings in the background. A chimney sends up puffs of smoke that get bigger as they go over the elephant's ear, then they diminish. There is a border that begins at the village horizon line, which is small white dots that increase in size, eventually becoming clouds. As they curve around to the bottom of the poster, they end in a tiny white elephant, running. This film is Polish. The poster has visible acid burn.
