38,000 years ago on Earth - the twilight of a prehistoric era. Separated from her Cro-Magnon people by a devastating earthquake, Ayla (Daryl Hannah, Blade Runner) is a rare vision - blonde hair, blue eyes with an inquisitive spirit to match. She is adopted by a less-developed, male-dominated Neanderthal clan. Her unique outlook, resourcefulness and defiance of social taboos challenges her new clan which becomes a source of considerable conflict. As Ayla matures into a young woman of spirit and courage, she must fight for survival against the jealous bigotry of Broud (Thomas G. Waites, The Thing), who is destined to one day become clan leader. (Umbrella Entertainment)
