GUEST: GRANT RAUN
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.

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).
