简要：Silent Forest is an intimate, character oriented portrait depicting nature conservationists and activists in the Congo Basin region of Africa who are doing their best to prevent elephant poaching in the forest. A study shows that over half of the forest elephant populations in Central Africa have disappeared due to poaching in the past decade, and people are working together to save those left behind. SILENT FORESTS will explore this story through a series of dynamic themes; This includes one of Cameroon's first female ecological guardians, a grassroots wildlife law enforcement organization, a Congolese biologist studying elephant behavior, a modified elephant poacher, and an anti poaching sniffer dog team led by Czech environmentalists. Despite their enthusiasm and tenacity, these environmentalists face enormous institutional challenges such as corruption and lack of funding, which may undermine all their efforts to fight for the future of the forest elephant.
