Description

With war and wildfire ravaging Borneo's rainforest, can a pair of orangutan brothers overcome a bitter rivalry before the flames overcome them?

Amid a blistering drought, a bullying brute vies for control of the forest. Brothers Bili and Akan, certain their exiled father can restore order to the canopy, scour the trees with a clever plan to coax him home – but little do they know, their time with the mysterious Dama will see a bitter rift opened, and the course of their lives forever altered.

As an unstoppable inferno rages across Borneo, and with the region's people locked in fierce ethnic conflict, the stage is set for an epic clash – and one which must surely end in tragedy.

Set during the devastating 1997 Asian forest fires, this tale of love and loss offers a unique and heartbreaking insight into the lives of some of our closest – and most vulnerable – relatives.
