Sinopse
O ponto de partida na trama é a morte de uma cientista e de uma gorila fêmea em uma aldeia africana. As duas deixam seus respectivos filhotes, que se tornam inseparáveis. A narrativa avança e a situação se complica. Crescidos, a jovem Jill (Theron) e o gorila Joe passam a sofrer a perseguição dos caçadores. Para garantir a segurança do macaco, a moça aceita a oferta de um zoólogo (Paxton) e interna o bicho em uma reserva animal nos EUA. A empreitada não dá certo e a dupla tem então de bolar um plano mirabolante para levar o gorila de volta.
