About the film
In 2007, scientists from the Wildlife Conservation Society produced an amazing discovery: an estimated 125,000 western lowland gorillas living in the remote forests of northern Congo. Now, primatologist Mireya Mayor travels into the heart of the jungle to explore the great apes' secret world. She gets a rare and intimate look into the family life of one gorilla group and witnesses individuals performing feats unexpected in the wild. Spectacularly photographed and featuring new scientific insight, Mystery Gorillas presents startlingly familiar animals like you've never seen them before.
Run time: 50 min.
