Opis

In 2008, YouTube.com featured a film clip that became an overnight phenomenon. It shows the highly moving reunion of two men and their pet lion, Christian, after they had left him in Africa with Born Free's George Adamson, who would introduce him into his rightful home in the wild. 'Christian the Lion' tells the backstory.
