In a hermetically sealed-off safari park in Austria our civilization's moral challenges collide under a magnifying glass: guilt, responsibility, redemption. Fourty chimpanzees survived HIV experiments "serving mankind". Traumatized, highly aggressive and mentally isolated. Today four caretakers manage a unique rehabilitation project, where the victims learn how to become monkeys.—Denkmal-Film
In northern Austria, near the Czech border, lies one of the world's most unusual places. In a former safari park, now overgrown and closed to the public, reside forty survivors of pharmaceutical company Immuno AG's laboratory experiments. Infected with HIV and hepatitis viruses, they are traumatized, socially isolated, and highly aggressive. They hate humans-and have every right to. Four caregivers manage this unique rehabilitation project, where these survivors are learning how to become chimpanzees again.—Hayduke
