Storyline
Professor John Oldman is packing his belongings onto his truck, preparing to move to a new home. As John’s colleagues press him to explain the reason for his departure, he picks up from a reference to Magdalenian cultures by Dan and slowly, and somewhat reluctantly, reveals that he is a prehistoric caveman himself from that precise period.

“The purest experience for the movie is not to have read the book because when you've read the book you're just ticking off boxes.”
