Elephant Song

[Machine Translation] A missing psychiatrist and a young man, Michael, who longs for love. Xavier Dolan wanted to appear in "This is Me", a psychological drama. Michael is a beautiful young man who has been in a mental hospital since the age of 14, when his mother, an opera singer, committed suicide in front of him. He was considered the most troubled child in the hospital and showed an unusual obsession with all things elephant-related. One day, his doctor, Lawrence, disappears. Michael is the only one who knows the clues. Peterson, the head nurse who knows Michael well, advises that "Michael only makes fun of him and never tells the truth," but Director Green tries to ask him what happened. In exchange for talking, he offers conditions: 1) he will not read my chart; 2) he promises to give me chocolate as a reward; 3) he will remove the head nurse from the case; 4) he will not tell me anything about the case; 5) he will not tell me anything about the case; 6) he will not tell me anything about the case; and 7) he will not tell me anything about the case. Green agrees to the terms, but Michael keeps diverting him with idle chatter about elephants and opera. He insinuates that Michael killed his mother, was sexually abused by Dr. Lawrence, and other things that may or may not be true. Before long, Greene is caught in Michael's ingenious trap...
