You can watch the film on Wondrium’s carefully curated collection of films, tutorials, travelogues, documentaries, and much more. Wondrium is academically comprehensive, thoroughly researched, relentlessly entertaining, and presented by engaging experts. Breaking Their Silence was a passion project for all of us involved in the making of it. We made it to be part of the wide range of teaching tools that will hopefully help to spread awareness of the peril these animals face, and to help keep any more of our beautiful wildlife from extinction.

Dr. Lorinda Hern Shares a Very Personal Story in this Clip From Breaking Their Silence
Trang Nguyen - Animal Advocate, Founder of WildAct
We flew to Vietnam to film Trang Nguyen and learn about her heroic efforts to protect wildlife. She risked her life in going under cover with poachers - hear her story in Breaking Their Silence - and be inspired!
When we talk about the hard facts, Asia is often vilified — and for good reason - Asia creates the demand that fuels the supply chain. What is not widely known is that there are extremely brave African and Asian women working hard across continents; Vietnam, Cambodia, China, Laos, Kenya, South Africa, Rwanda and beyond who risk their freedom, their lives and their livelihoods advocating for these animals.
They are slowly making headway and need your support - we can’t wait for you to meet them in Breaking Their Silence.
“Outstanding, beautifully made, powerful and heartbreaking film.”
