The Cape Light: Away From The Edge
 

Imagine lifting and moving the tallest lighthouse in America, the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, 208 feet high, 10 million pounds of brick and granite. It is a structural masterpiece, and moving the lighthouse was an engineering marvel. This film documents the move and broadcasts the re-lighting live from the original grounds of the Light Station in Buxton, North Carolina. In this sequel to The Cape Light, and picks up where the other left off. Photographers have been on site every day since March 1, capturing the painstaking process--a process many thought could never be done. They were there when workers cut huge granite boulders from beneath the beacon. They witnessed the drama of the light's initial inch up and the thrill as it began its journey half a mile back from the ocean.
