PANT HOOT

DIR/PROD: Richard Reens
EXEC PRODS: Barbara Hollweg, Lewis Hollweg
FEATURING: Stany Nyandwi, Dr Jane Goodall DBE, Jana Jane Swart, Lewis Hollweg

As the world’s chimpanzee population dwindles in the wild, one man risks everything to care for a group of mistreated animals rescued by Jane Goodall’s Chimp Eden Sanctuary in South Africa. Stany Nyandwi, a survivor of the Burundi genocide, overcomes insurmountable odds to become one of the only humans to master the complicated ‘pant hoot’ chimp language. Recognizing that it’s not just a chimpanzee/human struggle, he’s taken it upon himself to reconnect with our closest relatives on this planet. Love knows no man-made boundaries in this universal story about understanding.
