Chigwe is an ape with more than usually human
characteristics. He has spent most of his life in freak
shows,
until
rescued by Nemo and his parents. He still needs to be
protected as scientists are interested in him as a possible missing link
between apes and humans. However, when Nemo makes friends with
Martha, taught at home because her parents don’t want her to learn
anything which contradicts their strict beliefs, the danger to Chigwe
becomes deadly. |
