Pulitzer Electric Air Race: 3rd Age of Aviation

The Pulitzer Race documentary bridges a century of innovation, from the roaring 1920s air races that pushed aviation into the modern age to today’s revolution in electric flight. In 1925, daring pilots raced roaring engines for speed and glory; in 2025, pioneers gather again to compete with clean, quiet, and sustainable aircraft. Through rare archival footage, personal stories, and the voices of modern visionaries, the film captures the spirit of competition, progress, and imagination that defines aviation. It is a story of legacy and transformation—how yesterday’s race for speed became today’s race for the future of flight. Produced by Susan Roe Musacchio, a third generation Aviatrix  and LegacyFILM.

Ouilmette

In distribution now, the documentary film shares the unknown history of Chicago told from a Native American perspective.  It shares how Archange Ouilmette was the founding mother of Chicago and its impact on the landscape today. The little known story begins with the documentation of Sharon's ancestry and her journey to learn about her heritage. Few Chicagoans truly understand that Native Americans, let alone a 7th generation Native American still resides in Chicago.  We will weave the story of the beginning of Chicago, the importance of Native American presence in Chicago, the 1830's Indian Removal Period and how today, Chicago is one of the largest Native American populations in the country.   


Produced with the historical consultancy of Sharon Hoogstraten (Citizen Potawatomi Nation) and Cole Rattan (Citizen Potawatomi Nation) and descendents of Ouilmette.
