Silverback

On a three-month mission to help save the Congo’s eastern lowland gorillas from extinction, cameraman Vianet Djenguet comes face to face with Kahuzi-Biega’s largest wild silverback.

Award-winning wildlife cameraman Vianet Djenguet has been invited by a team of conservationists from the Kahuzi-Biega National Park in Democratic Republic of the Congo to closely document their effort to protect the eastern lowland gorilla, a critically endangered great ape and the largest primate on earth.

By living amongst this group of our primate kin for three months, will the habituation of this gorilla family, coupled with Vianet’s extraordinary journey, succeed in the effort to save the eastern lowland gorillas from extinction?
