Episode Information
'See No Evil' portrays the daily life of three famous elderly apes who spend their days in a retirement home; a film star, a scientist and a an ape patrially paralyzed down his left hand side. We have watched and taught them for many years, as they have watched us. A sometimes bitter, poetic recapture of the strange but intriguing relationship between Chimp and Man, as ‘remembered’ by the protagonists.
