The Lost Film of Dian Fossey (2002)

From 1968 to 1972 photographer and filmmaker Bob Campbell documented the activities of Dian Fossey as she developed a crossspecies bond with Rwandan mountain gorillas Campbell shot 70000 feet of film but only a fraction of his material was edited into the lecture presentation that preceded Fosseys Gorillas in the Mist This program compiles highlights from the previously unreleased footage offering an unforgettable glimpse into the gorilla community and Fosseys relationship with it Her methods may not entirely jibe with those of modern conservationists but there is no denying the profound impact of her work on current research and ecoactivism
