Under the shadow of the white-capped mountains of Japan, a white cat with unusual markings arrives at the door of a rundown temple. A kind and gentle monk takes him in and names him Tama, Lucky Cat.

Il y a de nombreuses années, j''étais un chat en quête de nourriture et qui cherchait un refuge. Après un long et épuisant chemin, je suis arrivé devant un temple niché au pied d''une majestueuse montagne à la cime enneigée. Je me suis assis sous le portique et j''ai attendu, la patte antérieure levée comme à mon habitude. La légende japonaise de Tama raconte l''origine du Maneki Neko, célèbre petit chat qui lève sa patte en signe de bienvenue et procure chance, fortune et prospérité.

Growing up on the Indonesian island of Sumatra with its cooling lakes and refreshing mud holes, Anju loved being an elephant.

Anju spends decades traveling across the country, entertaining crowds. After the circus, she''s then moved to a small zoo for 23 years, their lone elephant. Anju no longer loved being an elephant. She was old and tired. Will Anju ever love being an elephant again?
