As a parent myself, this terrified me. The whole time I was thinking, “What is taking the humans so long?”
From the award-winning film THE URBAN GORILLA, produced, written and directed by Allison Argo. When a young boy falls into the gorilla pit at a zoo in England, the stage is set for an emotional journey into the lives of gorillas in captivity. From West Africa to the Netherlands to Washington State, where Ivan, a solitary male silverback, lives in a shopping mall, the film weaves a story of hope and respect for these magnificent individuals. (This was Argo’s first film.)
