how to animate a map rolling out?

I have this shot that calls for a map rolling out, going from completely rolled up, to resting flat on a surface. Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can achieve this? user added image

I tried playing with cloth, deformers, softbodies and, so far, ive had no luck getting close to the effect.

I am looking to simulate some kind of canvas or parchment material rolling out dynamically as it comes to a rest flattened out.

So, for example, animating a bend deformer isn't quite the look I am going for.

Any suggestions? user added image
