   Forest Gump, but the main character is from the Cucuteni-Trypillia archaeological culture of southeast Europe, and the movie is set in the period of 3680-3650 BCE. It is very nostalgic and full of historical references, but no one watching the movie today has any idea what is going on.

     @evan probably in the background and on some of the props, but of course no modern audience can read them.

     This film is really optimized for 3690s (BCE) kids as far as comprehension goes.
