Because orangutans are found primarily in trees in rainforests, it was for a long time almost impossible to film them. With the aid of microcameras and drones, Cordy managed to follow the behavior of three generations of females from an orangutan family. As always, Attenborough lends gravitas to the story, but the editing and commentary indicate a considerable degree of dramatization, raising doubts about how truthful that story is.
