<div>The film that started it.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In rural Myanmar, one man spends his days doing something almost nobody else will: standing on the line between elephants and the people whose homes, crops and lives are at risk when the two collide. That's the story we told in The Linesman — a 30-minute documentary about what human-elephant conflict actually looks like, up close, from both sides of the fence.

<div>Now we're going further
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Both Sides of the Line picks up where The Linesman left off. Instead of one village in Myanmar, this film follows communities and elephants across Asia and Africa — and the coexistence solutions that are actually working on the ground. Same mission. Bigger canvas.
