Experimental story of a primatologist who lives with a captive colony of bonobos. She falls in love with Meema, the matriarch of the colony. This funny, irreverent and smart video examines our notions of perversity. Meema seizes her chance of a heroic role. Will also be screened in Rotterdam Tiger Awards for Short Films 1.
