- Synopsis:
- Born in the jungles of Borneo over forty years ago, Nenette the orangutan is now the most senior inhabitant of the world's oldest zoo - and the star of this awe-inspiring, tender and funny film from the director who charmed the world with the BAFTA nominated Etre et Avoir. What we see is Nenette, going about her daily business; what we hear are the voices of the many visitors who pass comment on her every day, revealing more about themselves than the object of their gaze. Philibert's film fascinates as a portrait of an ultimately unknowable celebrity whilst exploring though-provoking themes of privacy, captivity and the relationship between the observer and the observed.
