El elefante del rey (2003)

"El elefante del rey" is a 2003 Comedy movie directed by Víctor García León and starring by Juan Echanove, Leonor Watling. North Sudan, summer 1923. King Alfonso XIII of Spain captures an enormous African elephant, an apparently irrelevant act that, however, will be paramount to understand the Spain of 20th century; an animal from far lands that will become a symbol of the Second Spanish Republic, the communist movement and many other things; a royal hunting that marks the beginning of a bizarre story of jealousy, passion, political intrigues and taxidermy.
