"Finding Jeff" is a poignant exploration of the disappearance of U.S. Air Force pilot, Captain Jeff Lemon, who vanished during a nighttime mission in Vietnam in 1971. The documentary delves into the enduring mystery of his whereabouts and the tireless efforts of his family to uncover the truth behind what happened. Anchored by the unwavering commitment of Jeff’s mother, Mary Carol Lemon, the film also shines a light on the brave women of the National League of POW/MIA Families, who set aside traditional roles of wives and mothers and united to hold the U.S. government accountable for bringing their loved one’s home. Through emotional interviews and historical context, "Finding Jeff" highlights their relentless pursuit of justice and their determination to return the over 80,000 veterans from all conflicts still missing today.

Our mission is to create a film that honors the courage, sacrifice, and enduring legacy of those who served not only in the Vietnam War but in all foreign conflicts, alongside their families. Inspired by the stories of countless families, including those of the film’s producers, this documentary uniquely spotlights the search for Captain Lemon along with the women who fought tirelessly to bring their loved one’s home, ensuring their voices and efforts are recognized. We aim to preserve the memory of these heroes for future generations while showcasing how grassroots efforts can drive meaningful change and how the relentless pursuit for answers continues to shape history.
"This is a powerful story that needs to be told.
Thank you for telling it!"
