. . . a film that takes us on an eerie descent into an ancient cave to discover something strange, awe-inspiring and scary …
Werner Herzog.This director has scored another remarkable success with this
documentary, using 3D to accentuate the massive, sculptural forms revealed to his camera. He and a minimal crew were allowed into the extraordinary Chauvet cave in the south of France, named after Jean-Marie Chauvet, the explorer who in 1994 made a Tutankhamun-level discovery: hundreds of pictures of animals drawn with flair, sophistication and detail by Neanderthal (sic) man around 32,000 years ago.
