The Houston Comedy Film Festival provided the perfect platform to showcase their comedic genius and celebrate their mockumentary’s success.

The Winning Mockumentary

An Interview with Max Darwin

Following the award ceremony, we had the pleasure of speaking with Max Darwin, one of the creators and stars of the film. His enthusiasm was palpable as he shared his thoughts on the film’s success.

“It’s truly an honor to have ‘The Lost Treasure of J.J. Abrams’ recognized as the Best Mockumentary at the Houston Comedy Film Festival,” Max Darwin exclaimed. “This project was a labor of love, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see our hard work pay off.”

Max went on to discuss the film’s inspiration and the creative journey they embarked on. “When we pitched the idea of a mockumentary set in Hawaii inspired by Akira Kurosawa’s ‘Dersu Uzala,’ it felt both absurd and endearing. We wanted to take a far-fetched concept and take it seriously, blending humor with a deeper theme of human aspiration against the backdrop of nature.”

A Journey to Remember

“The Lost Treasure of J.J. Abrams” was shot entirely on Oahu, Hawaii, with a local Hawaiian cast. The film aimed to showcase the island’s natural beauty and the spirit of “malama aina,” the Hawaiian concept of caring for the land. Director Alex Farnham, a local Hawaiian filmmaker, played a pivotal role in bringing this vision to life.
