Summary:

Deep in the middle of Borneo's jungle lives a woman who has become the mother of 600 orangutans. She has dedicated her life to the charismatic animals which are among one of the world\'s most endangered animal species, and she has been struggling hard for the survival of the orangutan for the past 13 years. Lone Droscher Nielsen is the head of the world's largest rehabilitation centre for orangutans. She founded the center eight years ago and today she is responsible for 600 organgutans and 150 employees. She is trying to help apes, who have lived in captivity or who have been held illegally as pets, ease their way back into nature. But it is a costly affair to run such a large center and now that the primary sponsor has filed for bankruptcy, Lone finds herself in great economic difficulties. Will she be able to raise enough money and save the endangered orangutan?
