William

Two pioneering scientists give birth to a Neanderthal—the first to walk the Earth in roughly 35,000 years—in an effort to answer these questions. Part 'normal' child, part science experiment, William’s 'parents' wrestle with the best way to raise him. As William grows toward adulthood, he is educated in the human experiences of love and intimacy. Yet his primitive impulses begin to surface the more he strives to conform to human expectations, leading to tragic consequences for him and his loved ones.
