Summary:
"Based on the true story of young anthropologist
Dian
Fossey
who travels to the African mountains to study the rare
gorillas
. In this incredible paradise which she describes as being 'as close to God as you can get,' her interest in the
gorillas
turns to passion and finally obsession. Not even her lover, photographer Bob Campbell, can tear her away-or stop her from risking her life to protect the
gorillas
from poachers and animal traders. Desperate to save her 'family' from extinction,
Fossey
searches for justice, but in the end settles for revenge. You my applaud what she does. Or you may condemn it. But you will never forget the passion that turned her into a legend."--Container.
