“Bornéo, la mémoire des grottes”

Alpine and foreign cultures (), Luc-Henri Fage (Frankreich/France) 52 min

After discovering several caves with rock drawings in the area of Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo, explorers were able to prove that 10.000 years ago, people must have already been living here. On an expedition in 2003, for the first time together with Indonesian archaeologists, a team of international renowned scientists examines the drawings in greater detail. This film presents the discovery of further caves containing drawings and invites us to a fascinating journey to the former world of hunters and collectors, where shamans were able to communicate with ghosts.
