First Born(1988)

He created life... but can he live with the consequences?

First Born is a science fiction series following Edward Forester, a genetic researcher whose ambition to create primate hybrids spirals into dangerous territory. When he successfully breeds a human-gorilla hybrid, Forester makes a fateful decision: he conceals the experiment and raises the creature, named Gor, as his adopted son. As Forester teaches Gor to speak and navigate human society, the strain of hiding such an extraordinary secret intensifies. But Gor's dual nature proves impossible to suppress, and the carefully constructed deception unravels into tragedy. The series explores themes of scientific hubris, parental responsibility, and what it means to belong when you're fundamentally different from everyone around you.
