CAVE OF FORGOTTEN DREAMS (France) Documentary, 90mins. Visit Films. Dir: Werner Herzog. For more than 20,000 years, Chauvet Cave has been completely sealed off by a fallen rock face, its crystal-encrusted interior as large as a football field and strewn with the petrified remains of giant Ice Age mammals. In 1994,
scientists discovered the caverns, and found hundreds of pristine paintings within, spectacular artwork dating back more than 30,000 years (almost twice as old as any previous finds) to a time when Neanderthals still roamed the Earth and cave bears, mammoths, and lions were the dominant populations of Europe.
