How did Homo sapiens evolve? How did our brains begin to change? And why did early humans suddenly start creating art? What about the concept of past and future?

Seminal moments like the discovery of tools, adaptation to climate change or the hunting of large mammals are re-enacted in this ambitious documentary. At the same time, current thinking on subjects as diverse as the evolution of human belief systems, changes in migration patterns and the emergence of cave painting is revealed.
