Nim is the chimpanzee who in the 1970s became the focus of a landmark experiment which aimed to show that an ape could learn to communicate with language if raised and nurtured like a human child. Following Nim's extraordinary journey, and the enduring impact he makes on the people he meets along the way, this film is a biography of an animal we tried to make human.  Directed by James Marsh.  Documentary - 93 minutes
