Born To Be Wild

Believe it or not, animals are God’s most innocent creations. And, when such harmless creatures form a bond with humans, it is nearly unbreakable due to the amount of loyalty manifested in it.

Born To Be Wild is one such movie that deals with some wild orphan orangutans and elephants, which are being raised by humans, in order to save them from extinction. The sacred tie that keeps the care-takers and the wild fauna together, is a treat to watch. The whole film showcases forest adventures in apt proportions with Dr. Birute Galdikas, a primatologist featured majorly. Thus, you will come to terms with the whole rescuing team, fighting in favor of this dying species, which needs to be saved from the cruelties of humans themselves. In a way, the ironical representation of human endeavors in the movie makes it a must-watch cinematic piece. On one hand, where the Homo sapiens species is mercilessly after the lives of these harmless creatures, on the other, the same human breed goes out of its way, to help and rescue the orangutans and elephants from the bounds of extinction.

To sum up, this tableau presents an immaculate bond between beasts and mankind, where the latter feels the need to protect the former. The depiction is soul-stirring and one that leaves you respecting not just the humans, but the animals as well. The documentary is extremely inviting and brings forth the beauty of wild-life, with a tinge of humanity.

Cute, bubbly and easy are the first things that come to your mind when you begin to watch this film. Give this 40-minute feature a couple more minutes, and it will thump your intellect with the thought that there is so much man can do for nature, and it is so little that he chooses to do.

This movie directed through 4K Digital IMAX commences its tour from, Kenya where Morgan Freeman’s voice introduces you to Daphne Sheldrick, who has spent decades looking after orphaned elephants. You see her taking care of the species employing all the gifts that science has to offer. She’s not alone as when the movie takes you to Indonesia, you see Birute Galdikas doing exactly the same with orangutans. This movie is a genuine attempt to tell the masses, that a little selfless love is all it takes, to make this world a better place.
