Peanut, Hero and Tarzan are three cheeky monkeys. They live on the paradise Indonesian island of Sulawesi with the rest of their gang of crested black macaques. These very special primates are found nowhere else in the world. Twenty-five years ago, wildlife cameraman Colin Stafford-Johnson visited Sulawesi for the first time and now he's returned. Fascinated by the monkeys, Colin hopes to reveal their sometimes violent, often playful and, just like our own, highly political world. What he discovers leads him on a much bigger journey than he was ever expecting.

This documentary follows Wildlife cameraman Colin Stafford Johnson, as he returns to the Indonesian paradise island of Sulawesi to film the now very rare crested black macaque, 25 years after he first filmed them. The crested black macaque is a completely unique monkey, and only exists on Sulawesi, Indonesia. These intelligent, curious creatures with Mohican hair-dos and intense orange eyes have huge personalities, but they’re in deep trouble. Many of the local people love eating wild meat, and macaque is considered a particular delicacy. Illegal hunting has meant that the monkey population has crashed by almost 90 percent since Colin was last on the island. In this documentary, Colin finds out what he can do to help and documents his journey.
