Ein artgerechtes Dasein ist den Elefanten in Thailand nur selten vergönnt. Elefanten werden nicht nur in der Forstwirtschaft eingesetzt, sondern auch im Tourismus. Die Bedingungen für die Tiere sind dabei extrem schlecht: Für Zirkusshows werden sie gequält und abgerichtet, als touristische Highlights werden große Elefantenparaden veranstaltet. Viele Besucher aus dem Ausland sind sich der Konsequenzen für die Tiere oft nicht bewusst. Doch die charismatische Tierschützerin Lek ist bereit, für Thailands Elefanten zu kämpfen. Mit ihrem Elefantenpark zeigt sie, dass es auch anders gehen kann. Der Dokumentarfilm wirkt zunächst wie eine klassische Geschichte von Gut gegen Böse. Doch als die Corona-Pandemie die thailändische Tourismusindustrie in die Knie zwingt, wendet sich das Blatt. Die clevere Lek bildet neue, überraschende Allianzen. (Text: hr-fernsehen)
