Human Nature
“In the Interest of Civilization … Conform.”
DramaComedy
A philosophical burlesque, Human Nature follows the ups and downs of an obsessive scientist, a female naturalist, and the man they discover, born and raised in the wild. As scientist Nathan trains the wild man, Puff, in the ways of the world - starting with table manners - Nathan's lover Lila fights to preserve the man's simian past, which represents a freedom enviable to most.
VIBE
This film feels like a bizarre, intellectual playground. It's a witty, unsettling exploration of what makes us human, wrapped in a quirky, philosophical package. Expect a unique, thought-provoking experience that lingers long after the credits roll.
