RISE Travel Institute is thrilled to announce a special screening of “Hidden in Plain Sight: The Real Cost of a Safari Lurks in the Shadows,” a mini-documentary that explores the dark side of the safari industry. Filmmaker Rachel Levy’s award-winning film uncovers the pervasive economic leakage and exploitation perpetuated by foreign-owned companies across Tanzania.

Through interviews with local guides, safari operators, and community leaders, Levy shines a light on the rarely discussed aspects of the safari industry. For the first time, this film shares a side of the industry that has been silenced for years by heavy-handed, foreign-owned companies. As one speaker in the film says, “Anything outsiders know about Tanzania was probably told to them, shown to them, or explained to them by someone that hasn’t spent more than a month in our country. Now it’s our time to tell our own story.”
