He went on to assist directors Robert Florey and Augusto Genina, and in 1931 completed Le Blanc Et Le Noi for Florey and co-directed Les Amants De Minuit with Genina. That same year he made his solo directing debut, lauching a 40-year career that includes such notable films as the Josephine Baker musical Zou-Zou, the documentary Avec Andre Gide, and the D.H.

The Congo: more powerful and dangerous than any other river, yet a sanctuary and home for some of the most wonderful creatures on our Earth. 　　Wild Congo follows the second largest river on Earth from its source in Zambia on its journey through marshland areas and rainforests. 　　The Congo's journey stretches over a distance of 5,000 kilometres, starting as a small stream and developing into a raging river that engulfs everything in its path. 　　Biologists consider it to be the cradle of evolution: an experimental location for the emergence of new species! 　　The shoebill, elephant fish and blind eel are just a few examples of the wildlife of the Congo and its astounding ability to adapt. 　　Being separated by the water masses of the Congo River has also enabled our closest relatives, chimpanzees and bonobos, to develop completely different social systems, with violence and oppression reigning on...

一家公司派人到刚果寻找纯度极高的钻石，并将发现进行卫星传送。但从寻像上看，那里似乎发生了突发事件，似乎还看到某种体形巨大的动物。公司只好继续派人到现场查明真相。灵长类动物学家彼得.埃利奥特带着艾美——一只8岁的大猩猩前往。但是，热带雨林是另一个天地，在那里主宰一切的可不是这些城市人的意志。这是一个表现人类和动物复杂关系的故事。影片借助电脑栩栩如生地表现了艾美的动作，情节惊险曲折，激动人心。

讲述从刚果河的入海口开始，沿着绵延2500英里的大河上溯，而叙述的对象，是河，是船，是船上岸边的人们的生活。除了树皮做的独木舟，船有上装满原木， 原木上坐满人的大驳船，或者挤满了人，鸡鸭猪羊，和人们搭的防雨遮阳的简陋棚子。在小炉子上烤猴子，杀大蜥蜴，等等原始生猛而又鲜明活跃的生命。 　　殖民地时期的黑白纪录片穿插其间。黑白暗褐的背景里，几十个精瘦细长的黑人，在戴遮阳帽的白人指挥下，整齐的抬动粗沉的木头，或者黑沉的铁轨。那样的场景让人震惊。 　　而上百年过去，那些铁轨成为废墟，甚至那些独裁者精心构建的宏伟宫殿，也湮没在苍茫的草丛树林里。而不变的，是战乱，贫穷，疾病。。。 　　而在这片贫穷却充满活力的土地上，是那些诱惑人心极其贪婪的宗教机器，是政府武装和巫术政权（其战士“受洗”，将得到河神保护，子弹擦过身体而不入，所以不会有性命之忧）杀抢奸淫的混乱。 　　最让人震惊的有一幕，是数不清的小孩子，在一个殖民地时期铜矿的废墟上，用手在地上挖土，以期淘到结在泥土里的铜渣。纪录片的场景，比剧情片里的更真实更让人震撼。
