SUMMARY:Cave of Forgotten Dreams - Southlake Cinemania
DESCRIPTION:FILMS START AT 7PM - DOOR PRIZES AT 6:45.  Southlake Cinemania continues to bring award-winning international and independent films to audiences from across York Region at Silvercity Newmarket theatre (Yonge Street and Green Lane).    Directed by: Werner Herzog    Documentary    Werner Herzog gains exclusive access to film inside the Chauvet caves of southern France, capturing the oldest known pictorial creations of humankind in their astonishing natural setting.taking us back in time over 30,000 years.    Werner Herzog is a wizard at conjuring unforgettable visions, from the ship dragged over the mountain in Fitzcarraldo to the Antarctic landscape in Encounters at the End of the World. Now he brings us the earliest known visions of mankind: the Chauvet-Pont-d&rsquo;Arc cave art of southern France, created more than thirty thousand years ago. By comparison, the famous cave art of Lascaux is roughly half as old. Since Chauvet&rsquo;s discovery in 1994, access has been extremely restricted due to concerns that overexposure, even to human breath, could damage the priceless drawings. Only a small number of researchers have ever seen the art in person.    Herzog gained extraordinary permission to film the caves using lights that emit no heat. But Herzog being Herzog, this is no simple act of documentation. Just as Lascaux left Picasso in awe, the works at Chauvet are breathtaking in their artistry. Beyond the walls, Herzog renders the cave&rsquo;s stalagmites like a crystal cathedral and to capture stunning aerial shots of the nearby Pont-d&rsquo;Arc natural bridge. His probing questions for the cave specialists also plunge deep; for instance: &ldquo;What constitutes humanness?&rdquo;  https://taur.ecclesiact.com/2011/10/17/cave-of-forgotten-dreams-southlake-sinemania
