Review: Sit with the animals in the charming 'Bestiaire'

In "Bestiaire," a documentary by Canadian filmmaker Denis Côté set amid an animal park in Quebec, viewers watch as all manner of exotic creatures are fed and cared for, hustled from their interior shelters to the out-of-doors. Their human minders are unseen at first, and emerge only through Côté's careful balancing act between an instinctive world and one of human intervention.
