The 40-year-old orangutan may be finicky about her keepers, but Nénette is beloved by all as the star of the Ménagerie du Jardin des Plantes Zoo in Paris. This charming documentary from French director Nicolas Philibert offers a close look at the Borneo-born animal's day-to-day life in captivity and her effect on her many caretakers and admirers. Two-disc set also includes Philibert's film "Animals and More Animals" (1996), a fascinating account of the restoration of a Parisian natural history museum. 130 min. total. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: French; Subtitles: English. In French with English subtitles. Show more
