Within the brilliant mind of primatologist Ethan Powell (Academy Award winner
ANTHONY HOPKINS) lies an ominous secret — a deep-seated mystery unsolved
by his estranged family and the law enforcement officials who have tracked him
down and jailed him for murders that occurred in the jungles of Rwanda. Highly
educated and sophisticated, Powell’s truth was derived from years of studying
mountain gorillas-to the point where he was living among them in the wild and
accepted as one of their own. Now, held captive in a brutal prison for the criminally
insane, Powell, who has not spoken in years, is remanded to psychiatrist Theo
Caulder (Academy Award winner CUBA GOODING, JR.). Caulder’s unbridled ambition
drives him to risk everything and put his life on the line in order to understand
the actions of this headline-gripping madman. Eventually, both men embark on an
extraordinary journey fueled by their insatiable hunger for the truth, regardless
of the cost.
