Primate Cinema, by Rachel Mayeri, is a series of videos that visualize primate social dramas for human audiences. The first experiment, Baboons as Friends, juxtaposes footage of baboons taken in the field with a reenactment by human actors, shot in film noir style in a bar in Los Angeles. Created in collaboration with cognitive scientist, Deborah Forster, who shot the field footage in Kenya.
Played by Camillia Sanes, Patrick Mulderrig, Randy Tobin, Shaun Madden, and Andrew Maxwell.
