The film was directed by Shinnosuke Yakuwa based on the screenplay by him and the story by Higashi Shimzu which was animated by Shine-Ei Animation. The 104 minute film did $36 million US during its theatrical run, or just over 4 billion yen.
Plot concept: The film is about the adventure of Nobita and his friend in Japan, 70 thousand years ago.
