The Magician's Elephant

Peter wants to find his missing sister and crosses paths with a market fortune teller. The fortune teller hints that the answer lies with a magical elephant and the elusive magician who can summon it.

Even so, the dream lingers softly. Its hopeful note lingers. For younger viewers it lands with a gentle smile.
