Statement by Anthony Leigh Adams
Two
summers ago, my writing/producing partner, Christina Adams, and
I were vacationing in the High Sierras. We took a morning hike around
a pristine lake ringed by majestic, snow-covered mountains. We were
alone, serenaded by the soothing thunder of twin waterfalls. As
we explored the area, we came across a massive boulder overgrown
with vegetation. Under the foliage we thought we could make out
writing on the stone. We pulled away the shrubbery and discovered
a faint inscription. Although time had worn away most of the words
about love and loss, the date was legible - the inscription was
written 27 years to the day from when we discovered the stone.
We
were so amazed by the synchronicity and palpable emotion etched
into the stone that we sat on a fallen log overlooking the lake
and wondered who wrote it and what it meant. Almost instantly, images
and characters began to flow into us and we knew that this story
would be our next movie. After years of writing, producing and directing
for theater, TV and film, we decided to make LOST LAKE
as an independent feature film.
Thanks
to the extraordinary dedication and talent of our collaborators,
Christina and I were able to transform our vision of the story
in the stone into cinematic reality.
