DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT
I’ve been depressed on and off throughout my life, and when things get really bad The Need - to do something loud and crazy in order to "break out of it" - is always there. It is also almost always ridiculous in hindsight.

Sad Orangutans is my attempt to express both the feeling and the absurdity of the feeling.


A tragi-comic caper about three orangutans (this is a talking-animals-and-humans-living-in-harmony kind of world) setting out to rob a bank (they don't need the money) as an escape from their persistent ennui (they're very sad).
