Cave of Forgotten Dreams is a 2010 documentary directed by Werner Herzog, filmed inside the Chauvet Cave in southern France to document some of the oldest known human-painted images, created around 32,000 years ago. It was Herzog's first film shot in 3D, a format he had previously dismissed as a gimmick but adopted after concluding it was necessary to capture how the cave's original painters incorporated the walls' natural contours into their work. The film received wide critical acclaim and became the highest-grossing independently released documentary of 2011.
