Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAntonio Banderas was offered to visit the real Altamira cave, but he refused the offer. The cave has been closed to the general public since 2002 because public attendance was deteriorating the paintings. Banderas felt unfair to be granted a special permission and instead worked on the faithful replica which was built in a museum near the cave in 2001.
- GoofsAt the end of the movie, it is said that Marcelino Sanz de Sautuola died in 1889. He actually died on June 2, 1888.
Featured review
The man who discovered the Altamira Caves was a shepherd named Modesto Cubillas.
The person who the film says is the discoverer, Marcelino Saenz de Sautola is only the owner of the land but the film insists on giving all the importance to this man. Do you know why?
The family Botin & Sainz de Sautuola is one of the most powerful families in Spain (owners of Santander Bank), they are creepy aristocrats who want to honor his ancestor with a lie. The family Botin & Sainz de Sautuola are who sponsor the film. Poor Modesto Cubillas, you were "only" a shepherd with no money.
