I saw Chimpanzee in theaters a few months ago and fell in love with this film! So much, I couldn’t wait to bring my husband to the theaters also to see it.
Visually stunning, Chimpanzee is the remarkable story of individual triumph and family bonds. Journey deep into the African forest and meet Oscar, an adorable young chimp with an entertaining approach to life. The world is a playground for little Oscar and his fellow young chimps who love creating mayhem. His playful curiosity and zest for discovery showcase the intelligence and ingenuity of some of the most extraordinary personalities in the animal kingdom.
I fell in love with little Oscar and I found it fascinating to learn more about how the crew was able to film this amazing story. I couldn’t wait until Chimpanzee came out on Blu-ray to see what kind of bonus features it had!
