520    Follows animal rights lawyer Steven Wise in his 
       unprecedented challenge to break down the legal wall that 
       separates animals from humans. After thirty years of 
       struggling with ineffective animal welfare laws, Steve and
       his legal team, the Nonhuman Rights Project (NhRP), are 
       making history by filing the first lawsuits that seek to 
       transform an animal from a thing with no rights to a 
       person with legal protections. Supported by affidavits 
       from primatologists around the world, Steve maintains that,
       based on scientific evidence, cognitively complex animals 
       such as chimpanzees, whales, dolphins, and elephants have 
       the capacity for limited personhood rights (such as bodily
       liberty) that would protect them from physical abuse. 
       Using writs of habeas corpus (historically used to free 
       humans from unlawful imprisonment), Wise argues on behalf 
       of four captive chimpanzees in New York State. Unlocking 
       the Cage captures a monumental shift in our culture, as 
       the public and judicial system show increasing 
       receptiveness to Steve's impassioned arguments. It is an 
       intimate look at a lawsuit that could forever transform 
       our legal system, and one man's lifelong quest to protect 
       "nonhuman" animals.
