17 04 14 – As Emmanuel De Merode Recovers, the Film “Virunga” Premiers at Tribeca Film Festival

Virunga also
highlights why a fully protected park is the region’s best hope for
enduring peace and prosperity. As Cara Cusumano describes it in
Tribeca’s synopsis of the film, “Filled with shocking footage, and
anchored by the surprisingly deep and gentle characters of the gorillas
themselves, Virunga is a galvanizing call to action around an ongoing political and environmental crisis in the Congo.” Please go to virungamovie.com in the coming weeks to learn more about the film and where it will be showing.
