Inspirirana radom antroploginje Louis Leakey, Dian Fossey je posvetila život spašavanju primata. Fossey putuje u najdublje šume Afrike, fascinirana životom i navikama planinskih gorila u džunglama Ruande. I dok ih proučava iz blizine, Fossey pronađe način kako se s njima sporazumjeti te postane zaokupljena njihovim spašavanjem, što naposljetku uništi njenu šansu za romansom s fotografom National Geographica, Bobom Campbellom. Užasnuta zbog krivolova na gorile, Fossey se žali vladi Ruande, koja odbija suradnju tvrdeći da je lov na gorile ljudima u tim predjelima jedini način zarade i preživljavanja. No Fossey ipak odluči pod svaku cijenu zaštiti životinje od lova i izumiranja.
