An African mountain gorilla who's been taught sign language by a young primatologist is returned to the jungles of the Congo in this adaptation of Michael Crichton's 1980 sci-fi adventure novel. During their journey they cross paths with greedy corporate scavengers searching for a hidden cache of diamonds.

When a diamond explorer mysteriously vanishes in the Congo region of Africa, a safari bravely ventures into the uncharted jungle to find him. The deeper they travel into the tenebrous Congo, the more deadly their adventure becomes.
