The Ivory Game

From executive producer Leonardo DiCaprio, The Ivory Game is an epic documentary feature that goes undercover into the dark and sinister underbelly of ivory trafficking. Award-winning director Richard Ladkani and Academy Award-nominated director Kief Davidson filmed undercover for 16 months with a crack team of intelligence operatives, undercover activists, passionate frontline rangers, and tough-as-nails conservationists to infiltrate the corrupt global network of ivory trafficking. A production from Terra Mater Factual Studios and Vulcan Productions, the film follows poachers in pursuit of ivory’s ‘white gold.’ Ultimately, the film becomes an urgent wake-up call that proves time is running out for the African elephants, dangerously nearing closer and closer to extinction.

This film is part of the Global Watch 2018: Crisis & Social Action series.
