In these next two episodes, actress Marion Cottilard continues her journey through the Congo rainforest. Here, she sees first hand the wreckage left behind by the logging companies working in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Or logging rights are sold for salt, beer and soap when the timber fetches thousands of dollars.
