Gigi & Nate

What should have been a harmless trip to the lake completely changes the life of 18-year-old Nate when he injures himself jumping into the water and is left a quadriplegic. While Nate loses all hope for the future, his mother Claire works tirelessly for the well-being of her son. As a last resort, she provides him with an unusual animal companion: Gigi, a capuchin monkey, who is as curious as she is intelligent, to support Nate in his everyday life. As hopeless as the attempt seems, Nate soon finds new, unexpected courage to face life. Based on true events, the drama GIGI & NATE is a deeply touching story about an inspiring human-animal relationship. Oscar winner Marcia Gay Harden shines in the role of the mother.
