Coronado: The New Evidence explores one of the longest-standing
archaeological mysteries in the United States — the land route taken by famed
explorer Francisco Vázquez de Coronado, who from 1540-1542 attempted to
find vast wealth and fame while traveling north from Mexico. Through the
intrepid and tireless work of Arizona-based archaeologist Dr. Deni Seymour, we
now know where Coronado's expedition first crossed into what would later
become the continental United States.
Frances Causey (Director) cut her professional teeth in the early days of the
world’s first 24-hour news network, CNN. In the trenches at CNN, she met lifelong
friends and colleagues who exemplified the value of hard work and integrity.
Together, they won National Emmys for the live coverage of the Oklahoma City
and Olympic Park bombings.Causey has been fortunate to direct documentaries
for television and theatrical release, including Heist: Who Stole the American
Dream?, The Long Shadow, Is Your Story Making You Sick?, Final Fight: When the
Trauma of War Comes Home and Coronado: The New Evidence, among others.

THE POWER OF STONE is a documentary film about notable stone artist Lew French, who
splits his time between his home on Martha's Vineyard and the house he designed and built
in the mountains of Brazil's Atlantic Rainforest.
Lew French may first appear as unyielding and imposing as the granite he works with, but
beneath this artist’s rigid exterior is a dedicated naturalist, a father mourning the loss of his
son, and a deeply spiritual man committed to the concept of karma. Despite waking up at
4am to meditate every day, Lew struggles to quiet his mind. In stone, Lew seeks that which
he longs for: stillness. As one of Lew’s friends puts it, “Don't be tricked by the idea that he's
a stone mason. He's sort of a philosopher, artist, spiritual guide who's working with stone.”
