Project Nim

The story of Nim, the chimp who became the focus of a landmark experiment in the 1970s aimed at demonstrating that an ape could learn to communicate with language if raised and nurtured like a human child, is told by the team behind Man on Wire. The film is an unflinching and unsentimental biography of an animal we tried to make human, following Nim's extraordinary journey through human society and the lasting impact he makes on the people he meets along the way. What we discover about his true nature-and our own-is amusing, revealing, and profoundly unsettling.
