This unique footage proves, that chimpanzees are also at war, and demonstrate various behavioural experiments that also show empathy, cooperation, fairness and reciprocity. After fights, they reconcile and comfort each other. Not only in humans, but also with chimpanzee societies, there are manners and customs that differ from place to place. Might it be, that the development of moral and culture is not a purely human achievement? We are taken on a cinematic journey into the history of feeling and spirit, on which we can gradually see our complex inner world a little more clearly.
