Ellis Park background

Ellis Park

Australian musician guides us through his musical career and his wildlife sanctuary in Sumatra, where rescued trafficked animals are nursed back to health by conservationists.

Australian musician Warren Ellis takes us on a guided tour through his world and one very special animal sanctuary. A key member of iconic bands The Dirty Three and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, multi-instrumentalist Ellis has cut a brilliant and unorthodox figure in music for over three decades. Far from the international concert halls in which he has plied his craft lies a very different passion project: a wildlife sanctuary in the forests of Sumatra. Co-founded by Ellis and spearheaded by the indomitable Femke den Haas, whose dedicated team of conservationists rescues trafficked and mistreated animals and then devotes years to nursing them back to health. This fly-on-the-wall documentary offers both a deeply personal insight into one artist's life through the act of creating and an inspiring reminder of how much can be achieved when working together.
