Beginning next week is the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival and, quite often, a number of gems can be found in its documentary lineup. One film that’s caught our eye is When Lambs Become Lions, executive produced by Matt Heineman and The Documentary Group (Cartel Land), and directed by emerging filmmaker Jon Kasbe. Ahead of the premiere, we’re pleased to debut an exclusive clip.
Exploring the violative African poaching trade, the film profiles an ivory dealer from Kenya and his cousin, a wildlife ranger who is tasked with hunting down poachers. It has the makings of an emotional, complex documentary, and with the award-winning Kasbe at the helm, it should prove to be a break-out. Check out the clip below, which introduces the ivory dealer, and see more info here.
In Kenya, the intersecting lives of three men crystallize the fierce conflict over conservation efforts in the country’s vast northern plains.
