The discovery of the first caves – Altamira in 1879, Lascaux in 1940 – took place simultaneously with the great revolutions of modern art, revolutionizing the chronology of art history itself. This documentary film shows how much cave art has inspired the greatest artists of the 20th century, bringing out from the depths of the ages and the caves works of astounding aesthetic and technical skill.
