Everything changes after he meets Adam, a circus ape who can talk through sign language. When the chimpanzee is threatened at the circus, he escapes from his cage, taking Kenny with him. Together, they decide to find the scientist who is said to know the "secret of language." A thrilling journey across the country begins, on which they surpass even their own expectations. But soon, Adam's life is in danger. Will Kenny follow his inner voice and fight for his new friend?
