Chauvet. A magical, timeless place. A natural monument, born 6 million years ago, shaped by the movements of the earth, then decorated by man. Miraculously preserved, access is strictly limited. Thanks to never-before-seen footage shot inside the cave, this documentary takes us on a fabulous journey back in time to the very origins of mankind. A great scientific, geological and artistic adventure celebrating 30 years since the discovery of one of the world's most beautiful decorated caves.
