Project Nim (HBO)

Airdate:
Ends 12/31/13. From the Oscar(R)-winning team behind 'Man on Wire' comes the story of Nim: a chimpanzee who became the focus of a landmark Columbia University experiment in the 1970s aimed at showing an ape could learn to communicate with language if raised and nurtured like a human child. A winner at the Sundance Film Festival, this film paints an engrossing portrait of Nim's long odyssey.
