The story of one man’s fight to save the most illegally traded mammals in the world, and to change the minds of the very people hunting them. This one-woman-crew documentary shines a light on unsung hero Moses Arineitwe, better-known by locals as the “Pangolin Man”. With the people of south-western Uganda often forced to illegally hunt for survival due to a lack of income, Moses fights to save not only the lives of pangolins, but the very people themselves. However, with a lack of funding and resources, Moses must overcome his own struggles, in order to achieve his goal.
