At the far ends of the earth she found a reason to live and a cause to fight for.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.
