Orangutans: The World’s Most Intelligent Ape?

The rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra hold the last remaining giants of the Asian canopy. These Great Apes represent a prehistoric lineage of survival, defined by immense physical power and a solitary existence that sets them apart from every other primate on Earth. This documentary tracks the life of the Orangutan, a master of engineering that spends nearly its entire life elevated hundreds of feet above the jungle floor. From the rare Tapani species to the well-known Bornean icons, we look at the complex social structures and the extreme maternal dedication required to raise a single infant over the course of eight years. This is a story of intelligence, specialized evolution, and the fight to keep the songs of the canopy from falling silent forever.
