This is a story that's been waiting to be told for close to a century. Why it hasn't been is anyone's guess. In 1937 a mysterious stone was discovered along the banks of the Chowan River near Edenton, North Carolina. It bore a carved message from Eleanor Dare instructing any Englishman to give the stone to her father, Captain John White, discoverer of the Lost Colony of Roanoke. She pled for her father to rescue her and 6 other colonists after surviving great hardships including the massacre of many colonists by the powerful Chief Powhatan. Part fantasy but with a storyline built on many historic facts, John White finally receives the message and begins a quest across both time and space on a daring rescue mission. Anyone interested in the Lost Colony mystery and associated 16th and 17th century should learn something of interest in this film as well as being entertained along the way.
