A LOST LEONARDO FOUND?

Leonardo da Vinci painted only a handful of works. They're making a case that a painting thought to be from the 1800s is one of his.

HOW IT STARTED

It all began in 1976 when I read this sentence in a book: "...On August 21, 1911, Vincenzo Peruggia, an Italian mason, stole the picture to take to Italy." Ever since then I've been trying to find the truth about why he did what he did. This has led me on some amazing adventures, including meeting and becoming friends with the Peruggia family, especially his wonderful 86-year-old daughter Celestina. She didn't know much about her father so in my film we bring her truth about this elusive and strange man. And there's one thing I learned in doing all this -- there's a little bit of him in all of us.
