    Excellent documentary about the Tayos Cave
    This documentary is one of the most elaborate I've ever seen on such an interesting topic. The Cave of Tayos is located in Ecuador, in South America and has a lot of legends and myths surrounding it and, so far, there have been few mentions of it in mainstream media. Do not be mistaken, this is not an "Ancient Aliens" type of documentary. The amount of historical data compiled by the director is incredible. The documentary shows a complete chronological reconstruction of the events surrounding this interesting place, from its discovery until today, and the people who dedicated their lives to its exploration. The documentary is beautifully shot and has an excellent sound design. The cinematic shots of the place are spectacular. If you are someone who loves documentaries about history and ancient civilizations you will surely enjoy this one.
