Father-daughter Route 66 documentary to be honored at film festival

Longtime readers may remember Amber McKenzie, who was producing a documentary about a Route 66 journey that she and her father took together in June 2011. The film was titled “Father, Daughter, Mother Road.”

On Wednesday evening, McKenzie delivered some fresh news about the film via email:

 It has been selected by the Honolulu Film Awards to receive an Aloha Accolade Award.  Only ten documentaries a year are chosen to receive this award. I will be attending the awards banquet and ceremony with my father (the star of my film) and my mother, in Honolulu on May 4th. My father and I will be accepting the award.

A new trailer for the film has been cut. It provides additional intrigue, namely in the form of Amber’s back story:

McKenzie said she hopes the publicity from the upcoming honor will help her film land a distribution deal.

A Facebook page for “Father, Daughter, Mother Road” is here.
