2 "dislikes"??? What the hell? Somebody help me out here.

[AeacusCanti]

I don't think he's saying that this cave in particular is THE origin of human culture. It's more that this cave is the earliest know use of figures, symbols. So, it represents the birth of art, it is not the birth of art itself as some singular event. But it speaks of a first times when man wished to express something greater than himself. Personally, I found this film incredibly powerful.

some believe the earth is 6000 years ...

you have to see the latest art translations of these visions and dreams o youtube, "Cave of Forgotten Dreams Art Translations"

or get a carbon sample and send it to the Beta Laboratory. Still not the exact date but a very approximate one, of the timber burned to make the paintings.

[Xaivier2000]

No one knows the true exact age of those paintings.

A guess is not good enough.

They are "OLD" yes but how old no one will ever know unless you build a time machine and "Go Back" to see with your own eyes.

LOL. Kill yourself. You don't deserve life. If you can't appreciate the power and significance of this documentary you are psychotic. People like you are the epitome of delusion. You're an absolutely pointless induvidial who will amount to nothing. A complete waste of oxygen.

[MatthiasAletharch]

This movie was the only time (so far) I've been in an ordinary cinema screening and the entire audience applauded at the end of the film. There's something about these 30,000 year old paintings that really gets under your skin.
