Veteran filmmaker Simon King takes on the role of surrogate mother to two cheetah cubs, twin brothers Toki and Sambu, orphaned when their mother was killed by a lion. It’s a four-year emotional rollercoaster, from terrifying stand-offs with rhinos and leopards to some of the most intimate moments of cheetah life ever captured on film. The cubs transform into sleek hunters, spending more and more time on their own. But Simon has formed a close emotional attachment to the cheetah cubs, and he worries about them continually. How can he let them go and still keep them safe? Can they survive the dangers of the bush? How will he cope if something goes wrong? What will be best for them in the end? King’s attachment to the cubs is easily understood and highly contagious. Be prepared to join him on his rollercoaster ride as you watch the story of The Cheetah Orphans play out.
