nChecknout the Jeffrey Karoff film about Paulette. Called Cavedigger, the documentary was released onnthis date in 2013. You can feel the years of dedicated effort – using just hand tools! – as younfeast your eyes on Paulette’s creations. This film also shows some of thenfrustrations and obsessiveness of the artist’s quest to create whatnhe considers his Magnum Opus.
