This documentary takes you on a journey through the history of feelings and the intellect, featuring interviewees Jane Goodall, Frans de Waal and Volker Sommer. Unique film footages proves that chimpanzees wage war, experiments demonstrate that they also show compassion, cooperation, fairness and reciprocity.

| English biography: | I was born in Frankfurt am Main, since 1992 a freelancer writer and director. My work as an author, director and film producer is defined by the motto: "Pictures indicate the silence between words." With this in mind, I strive for imagery committed to people and aesthetics for my documentary projects, for which I am happy to use artistic means to make them metaphorically deeper. |
