Only three.

These are yours.
You are older.
-By length of a sunset. -Is older.
Soona.
Which one sings to you?
This one.
Silk.
We will raise them together.
Like we were raised.
It will be the same.
-Yes? -[eagle screeches]

Go, go, go.

[child 1] They're back! They're back!
[child 2] Soona!
[child 3] Did you get your eggs?
-How far did you climb? -Was it dangerous?
Very dangerous.
Anaya wailed like a newborn.
[laughing]
[child 1] How many eggs did you honor?
-[child 2] Show us the egg. -[child 3] Did you climb well?
-[child 4] Show us the egg. -[child 5] Show us your egg.
Egg. Egg. Egg.
Show us, Anaya, please?
[children gasp, exclaim]
[all chatter]
-Who want? -[child] Me, me, me!
-Aw! -[child groans dejectedly]
[child 2] Come on. Come on. Give, give! Hey!
Son.
Show me.
All must wait for bonding.
Even Honored Teacher.
I am your mother.
I knew you would climb well.
He waits.
Broken?
Time for that later.
Your father will want to see.

Sun Eagle does not like work for tomorrow's ceremony.
You climb well?
Above Top Nest.
Huh. All of you?
No.
Only me.
[sniffing]
What that smell?
[inhales deeply]
You did not go to the Valley Beyond?
Never.
Is forbidden.
Yet blood of Echo on your blanket.
We did not go to Valley Beyond.
I accept.
You are true, Noa.
Much to learn.
Much to teach.
After tomorrow's bonding.
Now, Elders must know.
Echoes only bring trouble.
Oda will chase the pests away.
May I seek your counsel?
This blanket had the blood of an Echo on it.
[Elder 1] Echo.
[Koro] And I apologize for that.
This is a bad sign for all of us.
[Elder 2] That smell.
[Koro] And my suggestion would be...
[conversation continues indistinctly]
You climbed Top Nest?
Hard climb.
[Elder 1] Ah, yes.
[Elder 2] Could be dangerous.
[Elder 3] Danger.
[Soona panting]
Anaya!
You see your father?
I do not understand Eagle Sun.
I do. He hate Noa.
Noa.
[in sign language]
With Elders.
They send Oda to scare Echo away.
[Oda] Yes, Elder.
When mother was small...
dry season shrank creek.
Echo range for food.
She saw a small and a big.
We have good rain.

Master of Birds will make exception.
They will not make him wait for next season.
Yes, he will.
He is your father.
And I am his son.
Then I will wait with you.
Anaya wait too.
You cannot.
I must find another.

How young you are.
Without your mask.
Without this.
Speak up.
Not mine.
No mask.
I am not...
them.
Explain yourself.
They killed my father.
Stole my village.
I follow their tracks.
Hmm.
He was my village.
They killed him.
The Masks.
[sighs]
I am Raka.
I am Noa.
[Raka] Apes falling from the sky. Hmm.
He was outside when they arrived.
Did you see my clan?
No.
I hid.
I survived.
I protected our work.
They are an ancient way to store ideas.
The symbols have meaning.
Apes understood this meaning...
in the time of Caesar.
The Masks, in my village...
said that name...
"Caesar."
Shameful.
The Masks take his name.
Twist his words.
Who is he?
Not "is."
"Was."
Your clan does not know the true Caesar. [grunts]
Too many have forgotten who he was.
I know Elders of my village.
They made the law.
-That is everything. -[Raka chuckles]
That is not everything.
Long before your Elders...
it was Caesar who taught us what it means to be ape.
He was our leader, our lawgiver.
Apes together strong.
Ape shall not kill ape.
We, the Order of Caesar...
follow his words.
To this day...
I follow.
I am now...
the last.
The work continues.
-[Raka hums] -What is this place?
We believe apes built this...
as a refuge for humans.
Now it is rare to see even one.
But in Caesar's time, there were vast herds of them.
Can you imagine? [chuckles]
Perhaps here, humans were cared for, fed...
maybe even taught. [laughs]
What is it?
Echo.
Human.
You have seen one?
One.
They are scavengers.
Like boars.
Only lesser.
Humans are slow-witted, but...
there was a time...
when humans and apes lived side by side.
[Raka chuckles]
Yes, it is a puzzle. I know. But...
they were important to Caesar. Hmm.
So they are important to me.
I have to get to my horse.
Of course.
Follow me.
You do not know Caesar.
You do not know books.
You should stay here.
There is much I could teach you.
[horse neighs]
[yells]
Go away!
-No! Come back! -Pest!
[Raka] Wait! Come back!
There is no danger.
That is the one.
Stole from my village.
She follows you from your village?
Perhaps Caesar bids me travel.
Wait here. The work continues.
I have no time for...
I will not slow you down. I, too, keep a horse.
[Raka chuckles]
[Raka panting]
Can we not slow down?
No.
I am sure she follows.
I do not know why.
[eagle screeches]
[gasps] A beautiful bird!
Eagle Sun.
My father's bird.
He follows to taunt me.
This bird follows you too?
We raise eagles, my clan.
Sing to them...
so they know us.
A bond.
Sing the song.
Please.
No.
My father was Master of Birds.
He sang to eagles.
But I am not him.
Shame.
I would have enjoyed a song.
[thunder rumbles]
Strange weapons.
Broken.
[twigs snap]
Raka.
Noa.
She follows because she is hungry.
[shivers]
[coos]
No, no, no.
This is...
important.
They get cold.
Show mercy.
She is smarter than most.
We will name her Nova.
We name them all Nova.
I do not know why. It is from Caesar's time.
Why did Caesar care so much for Echoes?
Legend says he was reared by them...
impossible as that may seem.
Caesar legend is important.
He was first Elder.
He led with decency...
morality...
strength...
compassion.
Caesar never had to share camp...
with this Nova.

She...
reacted.
How?
As ape would.
-If Echo comes, she must ride. -Hmm.
Is my young companion showing compassion for our fellow traveler?
She is slow.
Horse.
[chuffs]
Then, of course, there is the gibbon.
Very, very long arms.
Is most unfortunate that the human can only use its feet for walking.
Imagine if you were falling from a tree.
You only have two appendages to save your life.
But if you were able to use both of your hands...
and both of your feet...
that's four times the safety.
And I imagine that, if I came across a special...
What is that?
[zebras nickering]
Horses with stripes.
Quite striking.
[Nova breathing heavily]
[breath quivers]
We feared the herds ceased to exist.
Will you not say goodbye?
I must find my clan.
The Nova stays with her kind.
You raise them up.
Follow Caesar's word.
To remember...
who he was.
It is important.
They are like you.
Would you like to join them?
He has his journey.
We have ours.
Come.

Caesar will forgive.
Shall we continue?

This should give us time.
[leaves rustling]
What did I miss?
She spoke.
She called my name.
You misheard.
You said this Nova was smarter than most.
[Raka] Within reason.
Some intelligence, to be sure, but...
I have a name.
Mae.
I know where they're taking your clan.
[sighs]
It's a human settlement.
It's where I'm headed to.
Looking for more like me.
There are more...
like you?
There used to be more.
You hid the truth?
My mother taught me silence...
for my safety.
You were safe with us.
And still not true.
Where is your mother now?
I am alone.
Huh. [sighs]
As are we all.
But now...
we have each other.

[Trevathan] Where, uh...
Where are you from?
You first.
[chuckles]
Well, doesn't really matter, does it?
I left.
Same as you.
Made it almost to the coast
and then I fell and shattered my ankles.
That's where Proximus found me.
And now you read him Roman history.

So, who are you?
I'm the human not helping the apes.

[Soona] Noa.

Say his words!
[apes] Apes together strong!
[Proximus] Say his words!
[all] Apes together strong!
What a wonderful day!

That felt good.
When I think on those words...
I feel good.
Caesar was first Elder.
Now I am Caesar.

He is not Caesar.

[Proximus hooting]
Now, when I think of all the treasures left inside for us...
Oh...
I feel very good.
It may be difficult to open.
But not impossible...

Don't worry.
Whoever's in there is either dead or gone.
We've been bangin' on that door for months.

[Mae] Do you not know where we are?
When things got bad and the government went underground,
this is where half of it went.
With all their technology, and all their weapons...
Don't you understand?
That ape cannot have what is inside the...
You gotta stop thinking about the way things were
and start thinking about the way they are.
This is a good life,
and you have a chance to be a part of it.
What, and build a world for the apes?
It is already their world.
[Trevathan sighs]
There's hot water and fresh clothes in that room back there.
You'll feel better when you get yourself cleaned up.
You better figure out how to be useful around here.
[Elder chimp chittering softly]
[Soona] Honored Elder...
had to bend.
We had no choice.
You must accept.
[Soona sighs]
It is law.
The Elders did not tell us everything
about this world.
They did not tell us because they did not know.
They did not want to know.
-You are different. [gasps] -[staff thuds]

Come.

Come, sit.
Please.

An ape and a human
traveling together is...

[Proximus] You are Noa, yes?
Welcome, Noa.
[clattering]
Go.
Mae...
you are familiar with the concept of...
evolution?
That is the human label, yeah?
The advancement that I crave requires time.
Vast amounts of time that I do not have.
Unfortunately, I am but a mortal ape.
-[Proximus chuckles] -[chuckles]
So this is why I need to get the knowledge inside that vault.
I believe it will deliver
instant evolution.
Hmm. Noa.
You don't understand.
In their time,
humans were capable of many great things, yes?
They could level mountains.
They could speak across oceans.
They could fly, Noa.
Like eagles fly.
But now, we will learn.
Apes will learn. I will learn, yeah,
from what is inside that vault.
-[sighs] -[Mae] It's impossible.
No one's getting in there.
[Proximus chuckles]
Mae, Mae, Mae, Mae.
My apes encountered your companions.
I believe this map belonged to you.
You see, Noa,
before she was traveling with you
and that old orangutan,
Mae was with other humans.
[♪♪ suspenseful music playing]
But sadly,
my apes did not realize their value,
so I was brought only bodies.
I could not speak to them like I can speak to you.
I know...
you are coming here to get inside my vault.
It is not yours!
Oh.
It is now, isn't it?
And I will get inside.
No matter how many apes it costs me.
Noa.
I...
I have heard that you are a very clever ape, yeah?
Very clever.
He repaired one of your broken staffs, Trevathan.
I have much use for clever apes.
Now, can you tell me...
did Mae tell you how to get inside my vault?
She told me nothing.
Told you nothing! [slams fist]
Nothing.
Told you nothing.
Noa.
Come. Come with me.
Come, come.
I have something to show you.
Come. Come.
Come, Noa.
Tell me, what do you see?
[distant chatter]
Stolen clans.
Not clans.
A kingdom.
Noa, a kingdom for apes.
Humans can never be trusted.
Where there are two that can speak,
there must be more.
Mae has come here to claim the tools inside my vault.
Tools that make humans strong
and make them dangerous.
That is why I must have them first.
Yeah?
They do not understand that this is our time.
This is my kingdom.
I must destroy their kind.
Unless we want to live in cages again.
Come.
Come, Noa.
Let us eat.
Trevathan!
Tell us a story.
Make it a funny one.
[Proximus laughs]
[eagles calling]
[Dar] They will not come.
Why?
Because Eagle Clan...
is gone.
Eagle Clan is here.
We are here.
In land of Proximus.
And Proximus has no need for eagles.
[♪♪ pensive music playing]
-[eagle screeches] -[gasps]
You come to judge me?
I judge myself.
I promised our father
I would bring them home.
I failed.
Eagle Clan belongs
to Proximus Caesar now.
That is the law.
But the law is wrong.
[Noa hooting]

[♪♪ uplifting music playing]
[waves crashing]
[Trevathan] Time for the evening lesson.
It would be very good for you to be there.
[door latch clicking]
[locks door]
[thud]
[Noa] You did not come for Echoes.
And you were not alone.
[Mae] I'm sorry.
Proximus's apes found our camp.
They killed everyone.
I barely escaped.
I needed your help.
-And I was afraid. -The more you speak,
the less I believe.
I was wrong not to trust you.
And I know that now.
I trust you only to help yourself.
But that could help me now.
I have questions.
You answer true,
maybe I help.
What do you need inside vault?
It's...
like a book.
-A special book. -How?
Special?
Humans lost their ability to speak.
And this book might bring it back.
A book can do this?
This one can.
Raka said apes and humans
lived side by side.
True or not true?
Apes were silent.
Like the Echo.
Humans were dominant.
The virus spread...
that we created.
It made apes smarter.
And it almost killed all of us.
You know a way inside, yes?
Yes.
One last question.
Will water destroy what is inside?
[gasps]
Noa.
[in sign language]
A climb.
One I cannot do alone.
Why?
To free our clan.

Soona, this is Mae.
Hello, Soona.
What do we do?
We're gonna need all of this.
Follow me.

Yes.
You cannot make hard climb...
without Anaya.
[Soona sighs]
Hello, Echo.
[♪♪ suspenseful music continues]
[Mae] This burns hot.
But under pressure,
it will explode.
How do you know this?
[Anaya grunting]
Oh, shit.
"Shit"?
-[Mae] Take that over there. -[Anaya] Okay.
I go with Anaya.
Safer that way.
Anaya! Anaya. Stop.
-You're doing it wrong. -[Anaya] Okay.
You like her.
Soona.
We were born within a sunset.
[Soona] No. Anaya...
[Trevathan] He's just going to rebuild it.
[Mae gasps]
You...
You had an opportunity.
I gave you an opportunity.
But you're fantasizing about a past that can never come back.
Listen to me.
Trevathan, you don't belong here.
You think it's over,
but it's not.
Nobody is going to blame you for what happened here.
Just come with us.
Please?
He's gonna skin your monkey alive.
And you...
Well...

Noa, you are a very useful ape.
You understand so many things.
And yet, you fail to observe
one of the most important.
You cannot trust a human!
Here comes your clan to bear witness.
[chimps hooting]
You may be fool enough
to put your faith in such a duplicitous creature.
But I am not.
[Soona screeching]
[Noa growling]
Tell me, Noa,
ape to ape,
what did Mae have planned for me inside my own vault?
Okay.
So what do you choose?
A human over an ape?
Your sweet little Soona...
[Soona whimpering]
...or that stinky human?

Tell me your plan!

[child 2 roars playfully]
[Soona] Soft?
[Noa] Too firm.
Too firm.
-Silk. -Good.
Noa.
[Mae] I came to say goodbye.
Proximus was right.
Humans will never give up.
Not until you claim all things
for yourselves.
It was ours.
That silo was a human place
with human things and human ideas.
It was not meant for apes.
What is for apes?
Should we go back to silence?
We will rebuild our home.
Better.
Stronger.
From what we have learned.
[huffs]
[sighs]
If Raka were here,
he would tell us his Caesar
had much to say on this.
[♪♪ sentimental music playing]
Was he right?
Can ape and human live together?

I don't know.
