The most important scientific expedition ever conducted in Papua embarks on the discovery of a lost world, isolated for millions of years, the Lengguru massif. Our film follows the odyssey of a multidisciplinary scientific expedition immersed in a unique ecosystem: the Lengguru karst massif, on the borders of the Indian Ocean, in West Papua. Born of the violent collision of tectonic plates, Lengguru surged upwards suddenly 11 million years ago raising insurmountable barriers. It has since remained closed on itself. So much so that this region has permitted the development of a myriad of species found nowhere else, and about which everything, or almost, has yet to be discovered. The scientific mission, led by Laurent Pouyaud, biologist at the IRD (Institute for Development Research) is composed of some 50 European and Indonesian researchers. They will venture for eight weeks in territories never attained and explore one of the richest and least known biodiversity zones in the world. Their aim is to elucidate the mysteries of Lengguru. In the depths of marine waters, inside a labyrinth of underground caves, in the heart of the rainforest, or in altitude, atop jagged peaks, they will try to unravel the secrets of the evolution and adaptation of living species, prisoners of this lost world for millions of years.
