An extraordinary film that through the agony of an orangutan succeeds in showing the drama of deforestation and the extinction of forests. Every spasm of Green’s pain is a cry against the destruction that a man is doing to nature.

A touching, emotional, worrisome but bright and objective film outlines the dreadful situation of the contemporary society.

Sean Swain, Indigenous anarchist and former union organizer

and Brian McCarvill, anarchist and prison censorship opponent.
