El imperio de los chimpancés

I started watching, flipping thru the channels and I assumed I'd give it a minute and flip but this isn't your typical Animal show. The Director has studied these Chimps & shows to the viewers the deep level of societal interaction they have. They're tremendously smart, I had no idea. Fascinating stuff. Hope they make another season but knowing Netflix, this was a one time deal.

I am almost 60 years old, and I have probably seen upwards of 500 nature documentaries in my lifetime. Short of Planet Earth, which was as epic as is possible, this just might be the best one I've ever seen. It certainly is the best documentary I've seen about a specific clan. I felt like I was right there with them. Like I was feeling what they were feeling. Their fears, their hopes, their joys, their silly moments, and their terrifying moments. The cinematography is incomprehensively superb. At its most powerful moments, it is gut wrenching. As beautiful as some moments are, "at play in the Fields of the Lord," others are devastating. I wish the drive to wage organized, strategized war for nothing more than power were limited to our broken species. There are scenes that sent chills up my spine, because literally the only difference between what we are seeing and what we know has happened for millennia with humans, is the absence of shields and weapons Watching what happens despite the aggressors having all the food and space they need is pretty devastating. If only we could explain to them that we've decimated their numbers so terribly that they just can't afford to kill each other. In any event, difficult moments aside, you'll really want to watch this. It's the closest you could ever dream of coming to being inside a chimp society.

Clearly a lot of hard work went into filming this series, really wish the script writing moved on from ascribing human stereotypes onto wild African chimps. Science has moved on, humans have moved on - we can handle nuance and complexity. Why go to all the trouble and expense to film wild animals when they are just turned into cartoon characters. A troop of 120 members is extraordinary, one male chimp could not have be "the alpha" without a complex support structure of negotiations with " female alphas" and other males. Gladiatorial battles and hunting - check. What happens the other 95% of time to keep to troupe together we will never know.

Im not an Chimpanzee expert by any means, but after watching this 4 Part Documentary, im confident to say, that i learned quite a lot, by seeing this. It was super interesting to watch and shot so beautfiful. Also it was narrated very well and the way they gave each Chimp a name and certain characteristics about them, gave the viewer an opportunity to connect to these chimps fairly quick and so with that, it was a really deep experience. In my opinion each episode had the perfect length and from what ive read in an article, is that they had camera crews, which filmed for over 400 days for this project. Basically following these chimps each day. And that really shows itself in each episode. So, do you wanna dive deep into the forest? Go ahead. 9/10🔥👏🏼
