Start
A young chemist, Will Rodman, already longtime is working on a very important project - a cure for Alzheimer's disease, which is considered incurable. These studies are the fruit of not only the personal ambitions of a man, but also an attempt to invent a means that can save his own father from dementia.
The newest medicine must be in a special way.stimulate the work of the brain of the test and is, in fact, a virus. However, the positive dynamics identified during long-term experiments, it turns out to be useless because of the incident.
The fact is that one of the experimental monkeys,which showed the highest results in testing, unexpectedly showed aggression. The female escaped from the hands of scientists and burst into the conference room, where an investor meeting was held, during which the fate of the entire project was to be decided.
The animal was killed, and aggression was taken as a side effect of treatment. The project was closed, and the remaining experimental animals were put to sleep.
New house
The movie Planet of the Apes franchise ("Uprising"),the actors who showed in most of the characters of primate characters to the detriment of the history of people, tells of the formation of the hero of the monkeys, Caesar, almost from birth.
Immediately after the incident, it turns out thatThe behavior of Yasnoglazki, the killed female, was the reason. Scientists have missed the fact that the female was pregnant (this process can go quite unnoticed by a chimpanzee) and protected the newly born baby.
Роберт Франклин, коллега Уилла, должен был put animals to sleep. It was he who discovered the newborn monkey in Yasenoglazki's cage. Robert refused to put him to sleep and asked Will to pick up the baby for himself at least for a while.
Маленький шимпанзе очень понравился отцу главного hero, and Will decided to leave the monkey himself as a pet, especially since he quickly noticed the unusual abilities of Caesar. It turns out that the intellectual qualities of the newly-made pet significantly exceed the mind of its type and are comparable to human ones.
The chemist concludes that Caesar was affected by a virus derived from his mother. This is irrefutable evidence that the drug is valid.
Virus
Meanwhile, the scientist's father is getting worse.Will decides to steal the virus from the lab to help the patient. The drug acts almost instantly, but over time, Charles develops immunity to the virus, and it loses its effectiveness.
Ученый понимает, что он на правильном пути, и для Improving the action of the virus needs to be made more resilient and aggressive. But for experiments you need a laboratory and experimental animals. All this is provided by his boss when he learns that the drug not only cures Alzheimer's disease, but is also able to increase intellectual abilities, and this bodes huge profits.
Receiver
Will's father is getting worse.The disease is worsening and progressing. An elderly man comes into conflict with a neighbor, and Caesar, trying to protect him, attacks a stranger. As an aggressive animal, the chimpanzee avoids being put to sleep, but ends up in a special detention facility for monkeys. There he is forced to live among his kin and endure the bullying of a cruel taskmaster.
Gradually, Caesar is not only forging relationshipswith a team of monkeys and their leader, but also opposes itself to humans. If at first his only goal was to return home, then later, when his “adoptive father,” Will, manages to obtain permission to keep Caesar at home, the monkey refuses to return. Primate does not refuse the collar of a pet for the sake of a cage with relatives, no. Now he dreams not only about personal freedom, but also about the release of all primates.
But both Caesar and the head of the local monkey community understand that their kindred are stupid. Then the chimpanzee decides to help his comrades improve their intellectual abilities.
The escape
Caesar gets out of the cell and steals the sample.virus. But in his hands is a new, more powerful drug, invented in the laboratory. He frees not only the monkeys contained in the receiver, but also others contained in the zoo. Together they break through the bridge and hide in the reserve.
