Monument voor een Gorilla plot

In Burgers, Bert Haanstra films how the gorillas start using their brand new enclosure, where François, the leader of the couple, turns out to be the biggest fright. Due to the glass wall at the new enclosure, man and anthropoid can almost touch each other and situations arise that are reminiscent of Haanstra's earlier film Zoo. This time the director also leaves the zoo and goes to visit Cameroon, the country of origin of these gorillas. There, pygmies recount their personal encounters with the awesome animals.
