A girl that can talk to animals

An eleven year old girl can talk to animals. When a thief causes trouble in the local zoo, she comes to the rescue.

What if you could talk to animals and have them talk back to you? Anna Breytenbach has dedicated her life to what she calls interspecies communication. She sends detailed messages to animals through pictures and thoughts. She then receives messages of remarkable clarity back from the animals. Anna can feel the scars hidden under a monkeys fur, she can understand the detailed story that is causing a birds trauma, she transforms a deadly snarling leopard into a relaxed content cat – the whole animal kingdom comes alive in a way never seen before – wild birds land on her shoulders, fish gather around her when she swims, and wild unfamiliar baboons lie on her body as if she is one of their own. This is the first full length documentary film on the art of animal communication.

Nine-year-old Can, who loves and can talk to animals, must stop the owner of a conservation park from turning it into a residential development.

This documentary is a portrait of an "animal therapist and psychic" who has convinced skeptical pet owners, zoo keepers, and race horse trainers that she really can "talk" to their animals. We see her at work counseling race horses in need of leisure time, depressed cats, and misguided ants. We hear from owners and trainers who describe how their animals' behaviors changed following her sessions, and how she told them things about the animals that she "could not have known"--unless the animals told her themselves. The High Museum of Art in Atlanta said this, "Witty and understated, this film hardly seems the sort of documentary one would call subversive. . .but if we accept the essence of Friedman's work, it's not merely subversive but revolutionary, for it tests the very foundations of our experience of consciousness and our relationship with the natural world.”

"Why researchers think we're close to getting interspecies chatbots" (Vox).

Primatologist, ethologist and anthropologist Dr. Jane Goodall examines how animals communicate with each other and their human friends, through stories of animals that have changed people's lives, scientific research into animal language and more. Goodall, who has earned multiple awards for her work in animal research and welfare, focuses on how communication between animals and humans can lead to surprising mutual benefits.
