This review is from: Ends of the Earth: The Secret Abyss of Movile Cave (DVD)

This DVD is for those people who love nature, biology and caves. Movile cave is one of the several thousand of caves found in Romania. A small cave but with fascinating ecosystem!!! As a fact, the first Speleology Institute in the world where founded in Cluj (Romania) by the "father of bio-speleology" Emil Racovita. Overall, this is a nice documentary for those who like caves and nature. The negative opinion: the audio is not well mastered and lack of subtitles for different regional and international languages. Highly recommended (by cave man).
