This documentary was made in 2000, but it speaks to the Paleolithic lifestyle a lot. I did a search and didn't find any reference to it, so I thought I'd provide a link. The title is The Great Dance: A Hunter's Story. It is about the San Bushmen of Africa, in particular their hunting practices.

Enjoy!

Great but sad film. Do you know what that means for them - that their individual hunting licenses have been revoked..?
-
It means welcome to slavery

Just watched the video Eric.
Thank you so much! What a great documentary.

Things were very challenging for the bushmen for a while, but they've recently won a series of court cases against the Botswana government and have since been allowed to re-enter the nature reserves and access water there and hunt there. As a people they are still walking the razor's edge between extinction and assimilation, but they're holding on.
A friend of mine, naturalist and tracker Jon Young, spends a couple months each year visiting with one particular tribe and he tells me for many years they were embarrassed to be bushmen, but within the last five years they've started to be proud to be bushmen again.

Someone should show them the pictures in Dr. Price's book, and explain that their beautiful bone structure comes from their traditional diet, and that the white man's and "civilized" people's crooked teeth and flat/pinched faces are a result of diet. They've got nothing to be ashamed of.

Although the bushmen eat white-man food now in the winter.
-
Some of the bushmen eat white man's food all year round, others never eat it. Depends on which tribe they're in. Jon's told me that the tribe of Naro bushmen he spends most of his time with rarely eat civilized food.

Removed on copyright claims. I wish they wouldn't DO that... I wonder if some of these rabid copyrighters realize that if it doesn't go up in a public place, no one can watch what they make because no one will know that it's there!

Particularly for something as obscure as that show.

It was one of the best films I've seen, thanks Eric.

That isn't the documentary, is it? Two guys talking?
-
No, that's an interview of the creators of the documentary. The documentary was pulled off of Youtube.

Image quality is poor, but you can watch the full documentary here (for the moment):

Oh, nice! I'm on it.
-
I also found it on isoHunt (torrent tracker). Haven't watched it yet.

("Rawr" = [me] = "Raww")
And I lost my interest after I have found out there is junk sound added. Not a real documentary.
Anyway - the movie is available through its store at senseafrica . com - but only as a DVD. No digital download/streaming.
