The Covenant of Apefolk and the Orca: A Tale from 3.5 Million Years Ago

3.5 million years ago, before history began, a group of apefolk encounter a stranded orca on a desolate shore. Against all odds, they save the great creature. But when a violent storm and circling sharks later threaten their own survival at sea, the bond is repaid in a way no one could have imagined.
This short film is a primordial tale of empathy, survival, and the first bond between humankind and the ocean’s most powerful predator.
