Back to the Caves: A Taw Batu Family's Journey Back to Ancestral Life

This documentary travels to the island of Palawan to meet the Taw Batu, a small community of barely two hundred and fifty people who still live in caves carved into limestone cliffs. It follows a family returning to the ancestral way of life their people have known for millennia, far from roads and the modern world. The film captures a rare bond between people and an ancient landscape. A fascinating watch on indigenous culture, tradition and life in the caves. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
