    Instinct –About A Mere Illusion One of the two main characters in this movie is Dr. Ethan Powell‚ an anthropologist. The study of primatology is present in this movie‚ because Dr. Powell is shown several times living with the mountain gorillas. He gains their trust by adapting to the way they live and interact.
