"Under the lush canopies of Uganda’s Ngogo Forest dwells the largest chimpanzee society ever discovered.

While talking about how it felt to capture the wildlife Netflix documentary Chimp Empire, director James Reed said:
"I remember suddenly being aware that the Ngogo chimps were all around,...It’s like being on The Truman Show or something – you feel like you're on a set, because you can't quite believe they’re real."
The director added that the chimps seemed incredibly human and like they were assessing the makers the same way they were being assessed. Reed noted that when the chimps accept humans into their world, it is quite unbelievable.
He continued to say that the chimps were the ones making all the decisions and that the humans went where the chimps went. He added that the only thing in the creators' control was how they kept up with the action and where they pointed the cameras at.
Noting that it was quite a humbling experience, Reed added that he loved the experience. He stated that the only thing they could do was put themselves in the best possible position to record what the chimps were doing.
Don't forget to watch Chimp Empire, which will arrive on Netflix on Wednesday, April 19, 2023, at 3:01 am. ET.
