As the seasons wear on, the tribe utilizes Ayla's knowledge for their own good while Ayla's continues to try the patience of the tribe with her unspeakable feminist demands. She learns to count and becomes the assistant to the local medicine expert. She then questions the tribe's assumptions concerning sexual politics. Unable to conceive of why only men are given weapons, she takes it upon herself to learn how to use a slingshot. The Neanderthals quickly accept her into their tribe, but once a tribal member, Ayla begins to question the tribe's male chauvinistic presumptions. Focusing on a tribe of wandering Neanderthals who adopt a young girl named, Ayla (played as an adult by Daryl Hannah). The story begins at the moment in pre-history when the last of the Neanderthal men were becoming extinct and the superior race of Cro-Magnons were starting to supersede them.
Auel's best-selling ode to Cro-Magnon women. In its exquisite detail of a world that might have been, The Clan of the Cave Bear creates a new dimension of epic drama, and the timeless emotions that make it so human.This is pretty hade some part you get shock of,the book is better,but give it a try.Cinematographer Michael Chapman directed this John Sayles adaptation of Jean M. Torn between two cultures, Ayla belongs to neither, but to herself, and to the future of Earth's Children. Her heart and mind soared with the desire to be herself. Ayla was unable to blindly follow, dumbly obey the unchanging ways of the Clan. The development of her brain was following a different path: she did not remember as well, but she learned more easily. As she grew older, the differences became more than physical. She was too tall, too different, too ugly. Into this clan came young Ayla, a young girl they found and raised as one of their own.
This is a saga of that time when the people who called themselves the Clan of the Cave Bear existed by hunting mammoth and other prey remained insulated by their customs, rituals, the great totems they revered were doomed by this same insulation. Over 35,000 years ago, in prehistoric Europe during the Ice Age, humanity as it eventually evolved was just beginning.
(The Clansfolk do, however, have extraordinary memories which reach back to their own evolution. Quarter yellow cloth, green paper boards. Adopted as a child by the beetle-browed Clan of the Cave Bear after her people perish in an earthquake, Ayla looks different and is different: the frontal lobes of her brain are more developed than those of the back-brained Clan.
