THE LAST FARMER-CUM-PREHISTORIAN
A film by Sophie Cattoire
Running time: 52 minutes
A film shot “up on top” and “down below” - on a farm and in a cave in the Périgord
Noir. A film about the magical appeal of prehistory, the sheer physical pleasure
of going deep down into the underground world and discovering paintings and drawings
testifying to the artistry of those human beings we once were - when mammoths were
legion. The experience is indeed fascinating and extremely gratifying… even more
so when your guide is someone who is madly in love with his cave – the cave that
will be cherished forever. The film is a portrayal of Gilbert Pémendrant, the owner
of the seventh painted cave to be discovered in the world: Bernifal Cave in Meyrals,
Dordogne.
