Mahout

Summary "Mark, a foreign businessman, and his wife, a native of Surin province, Erin, along with their son, Marvin, returned to Thailand for vacation. During their trip, Erin requested to handle some matters related to their house in the Elephant Village. They participated in a ceremony to honor the elephant bones and paid respects to ancestral spirits according to the beliefs of the Guay people. Mark was not very enthusiastic because he wanted to relax, and he was concerned about the images in the Elephant Village where the elephants were chained and controlled with hooks, creating dissatisfaction for Mark. This, coupled with Mark's misunderstanding of the Guay culture, who worship the bones of deceased elephants, made Erin try to help Mark understand. As for their son Marvin, after seeing his peers riding elephants in the village, he also wanted to ride elephants for fun. Erin then arranged for him to train in elephant riding with the village's elephant keepers. After the blessing ceremony, Mark began to experience strange and beautiful dreams, hearing calls from the forest, with mysterious figures haunting his dreams, causing Mark to reconsider his initial impression of the Elephant Village. With the help of Japanese researchers studying elephants in Thailand, Mark gained a deeper understanding of elephants. Mark's strange dreams led him to uncover the mystery of the elephants' reincarnation, becoming Mark in the present, according to the ancient legend of the Guay people in Surin province."
