This documentary looks at the plight of chimpanzees that have been used in research (specifically in space travel and medical testing). Goes into the problems various shelters have had with creating and maintaining sanctuaries for these chimpanzees, including the perceived risk to the public of having HIV chimpanzees in the neighborhood as well as trying to get a handle on the personalities and history of the chimpanzees themselves.
