Virunga National Park is one of the most bio-diverse places on Earth and home to the last remaining mountain gorillas. A small and embattled group of park rangers risks their lives to build a better future in a part of Africa the world has forgotten. Part investigative journalism and part nature documentary, Virunga exposes the gripping realities of life in the Congo.
