A Point in Time presents how archaeological research is conducted. The film shows archaeologists working in Lincoln County, Nevada and some of the collaboration involved in research projects.
From the film makers:
“Our Lincoln County story is not one of awe-inspiring burial tombs, hidden treasures, or lost cities, but of real and compelling archaeology. It is the story of the careful attention that is paid to small, seemingly insignificant rock fragments and minute bits of the prehistoric past. Day by day, and year by year, information is collected, analyzed, and evaluated, until slowly the big picture comes into focus. To create a compelling documentary we have developed a locally based storyline that has regional significance.”
