Overview

Motivational Speaker Jack Corcoran is determined to get his career off the ground, but the biggest gigs he can get are the ones nobody wants. One day, he receives a telegram that his circus clown father has passed away and left a "huge" inheritance: an elephant that was his father's pride and joy. His main intention to sell the pachyderm off, Jack must choose between loud and rude zookeeper Mo or attractive animal show owner Terry. As the two trek through the country Jack and the elephant develop a bond, and it changes his approach to life for the better.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gently absurd road movie about a self-absorbed motivational speaker learning life lessons from an elephant. It's the kind of film that embraces its own silliness while delivering genuine heart beneath the premise.
