Short doc for the Guardian. The Batwa tribe have shared the forests of Uganda with mountain gorillas for millennia. Gazetting of these forests has seen tourism boom and gorilla numbers rise, but at great cost to the Batwa. Forcibly evicted from their home without compensation or land, they face a desperate struggle for survival. Co-Directed and shot with Jocie Cox. Production support from Rory Trust. Sound by Rory Maclean. Grade by Black Cat.
