EVERY FORM OF REFUGE HAS ITS PRICE

Enter SANCTUARY: an inspirational and heart-warming glimpse into the lives of our primate brothers and sisters. This beautifully filmed documentary brings the viewer into the lives of these special relatives of humans, to see the world through their eyes. Through first-hand accounts and rescues, to interventions and interactions with the primates themselves, SANCTUARY shows you a wondrous world where humans have given everything to save the lives of these used, abused, unwanted, and abandoned animals and given them a second chance. Narrated by Victoria Summer, this is a story of innocent lives interrupted by tragedy, but inspired by heroes and hope. Meet Puchi, Chucky, Jimmy Sr., Chaac & Bali—each of their stories touches us in a different way.
