The part of the story told by the movie the move that was the most powerful was how the poachers treated the mountain gorillas. The poachers only need the hands and the head of the gorillas to sell, and most didn’t take any of the meat. In the movie they showed a band of gorillas and their growing families, and how they interacted with each other. The focus was on one particular family, the father, mother, and baby gorilla. When the poachers attacked it was frantic as the camera moved around, giving off a sense of panic. Then when everything was over in a matter of seconds the camera focused on the father gorilla. Laying on the forest floor without a head and arms, this part of the movie made me see how real a situation and what a true tragedy
