An abduction that led to a lifetime search for answers Kidnapped from a Chicago hospital shortly after his birth in 1964, Paul Fronczak was found nearly two years later in New Jersey and believed to have been returned to his relieved family. The Lost Sons, a new CNN Film narrated by Fronczak, takes viewers along for his emotional search for answers about what happened to him, questions about his true identity, and who his family is.
“My story is about solving a basic mystery of identity, the puzzle of all human life: what is it that makes us, us?” says Fronczak. “What I discovered is that the truth can sometimes be devastating, but living a lie isn’t living at all.” Check out the trailer here. Watch the premiere on Sunday, September 26 @ 9 PM ET and join our exclusive screening and conversation, moderated by CNN Anchor Kate Bolduan, on Wednesday, September 22 @ 12 PM ET!

The real story behind the "People's Princess" Next month, CNN Original Series will debut the new six-part documentary Diana. It re-examines the life of an icon through the lens of modernity: reframing her story to discover the real woman behind what we think we know. Drawing on a new generation of voices, including interviews from those close to her, the series is a fresh take that reveals a princess unlike any other.
A woman more complex than history has acknowledged, and a feminist role model who showed vulnerability and strength, Diana was truly a blueprint for the modern woman. Watch the premiere on Sunday, October 10 @ 9 PM ET.
Uncovering hard truths on This is Life Award-winning journalist Lisa Ling returns for season eight of This is Life on Sunday, October 10 @ 10 PM ET. As the country tries to reckon with the events of this tumultuous year, there are two questions on everyone’s mind: “How did we get here?” and “How do we go forward?” To help make sense of it all, Ling takes a deep dive into our collective past to uncover hard truths and find some answers.
“History is so often told through the eyes of the victors,” said Ling. “It can be dehumanizing to people whose stories are overlooked and leaves out surprising and inspiring events that add dimension to our country’s past and give us road maps for the future. On this season of This Is Life, we explore consequential moments in American history that didn’t make it into the books. Our hope is that we will become better informed about the contributions of all of our fellow Americans.”
