40 years!

Exactly 40 years ago, Dian Fossey died in Rwanda, murdered in her cabin at the Karisoke Research Center. The very next day, the Gorilla association was founded, in tribute to the woman who devoted her life to observing and protecting mountain gorillas. Since then, we have been seeking the truth. Who killed the famous American primatologist?

The passing of time is the enemy of judges and police officers. Everything must be done to ensure that crimes do not go unpunished and that victims are not forgotten. Gorilla is fighting to keep this case alive, convinced that it is not too late to uncover the truth.
