A story of the allegedly unresolved 1809 demise of a national hero, Mysterious Circumstance sheds light on the death by gunshot of Meriwether Lewis, of Lewis & Clark explorer fame, on the Natchez Trace, an isolated frontier road connecting Nashville, Tennessee to Natchez, Mississippi. Did the Governor of the Louisiana Territory commit suicide as history reports or was his end far more sinister?
In the film, entangled versions of Lewis’s tragic ending at a remote Tennessee inn are imagined by his friend Alexander Wilson (Billy Slaughter) during a tense encounter with Priscilla Grinder (Amye Gousset), the only witness to Lewis’s final night alive.
Lise Romanoff, Managing Director/CEO of Vision Films says, “We are excited to bring Mysterious Circumstance to more audiences across the US. This historical unsolved mystery sheds light on a 213-year-old crime story that still fascinates us today!”
Filmmaker and CEO of Six Shooter Studios Clark Richey adds, “We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming response and positive reviews we continue to receive across the country with ‘Mysterious Circumstance.’ We look forward to even greater enthusiasm as we expand into the digital world where more people will have access to the film.”
