In the atmospheric English countryside, a young American zoology student, Jane Chase Elisabeth Shue, arrives for a unique internship under the eccentric Dr. Phillip Terence Stamp. Her assignment is to assist in the care and study of his three remarkable primates, including the brilliant and imposing orangutan, Link, who has been raised almost as a human. What begins as a fascinating adventure in animal behavior takes a darkly comedic turn as Jane finds herself increasingly isolated in the sprawling, remote estate. Link’s intelligence and devotion to his master evolve into a dangerous obsession, with Jane becoming the unwitting object of his possessive affection. Directed by Richard Franklin, this suspenseful adventure comedy blends moments of genuine humor with creeping dread, as Jane must use all her wits to navigate the increasingly unpredictable and perilous dynamics of a household where the line between animal instinct and human emotion has terrifyingly blurred.
