Photo: Campers keep warm at our first ever Movie Night in the Lusaka National Park which was held on August 8, 2026.

Film: Gabriel and The Mountain.

The film is based on a true life story and highlights the last months in the journey of adventurer, hiker, and researcher, Gabriel Buchmann from Brazil who, visiting Africa in pursuit of adventure and other interests, visited several African countries, even made his way through Zambia, and finally reached Malawi. On Malawi's Sapitwa Peak on Mount Mulanje, he tragically died in an unfortunate turn of events that make the film, tragic, educative, thrilled and interesting at the same time, especially for mountain hikers and outdoor enthusiasts.
