A Father's Legacy Arrives in Theaters Nationwide This Thursday for a One-Night Only Event

"A Father's Legacy is heartwarming and eye-opening, and just as importantly, it's one of the best films I've seen in a long time." says Kyle Bain from Film Threat

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 15, 2021 / A Father's Legacy will arrive in theaters for a one-night event this Thursday, June 17, from Fathom Events and Cinedigm, just in time for Father's Day. After the movie, the event features a pre-recorded conversation with Director/Star Jason Mac and Pastor Brannon Shortt from Bayside Church about the importance of fatherhood, how the choices you make have consequences and additional key takeaways from the film. The film will release in theaters nationwide across all major chains including AMC, Regal Cinemas, Cinemark & Marcus Theaters, just to name a few.

A Father's Legacy is an inspirational story that touches on family, redemption and loyalty as it follows a young man (Jason Mac) on the run after an armed robbery. Hiding from the law, he sets out to find the father he never knew. Venturing further away from the city streets, he finds himself at the secluded home of a stranger (Tobin Bell). As the days pass and the secrets about their past are revealed, they learn that they might not have been looking for each other...but they may have been brought together for a reason.

Movieguide said "A FATHER'S LEGACY is a heartfelt, compelling, well-acted drama about forgiveness, redemption and second chances."

"This film was born out of one of the most difficult times in my life," says Writer/Director Jason Mac. "My father was my protector; a guardian I knew would always be there, and then one day he wasn't. The loss forced me to look inside and really explore what it was to be a father. Too many young men have no male role model growing up, so I hope that becomes a lesson and learning from this film."

A Father's Legacy is a fictionalized story but heavy with the emotions of Mac's own experiences. The film stars acting legend Tobin Bell (Saw Franchise, The Firm), Jason Mac (The Vampire Diaries, Criminal Minds), Rebeca Robles (Reprisal, Ambitions) and Gregory Alan Williams (Remember the Titans). A Father's Legacy was produced by Mac and John Lerchen, under his Forever Safe Productions banner.

"As we celebrate Father's Day, Fathom Events is pleased to partner with Cinedigm and bring this powerful story to the big screen," said Ray Nutt, Fathom Events CEO. "The timing could not be better to release this film with its strong themes and lessons surrounding fatherhood."

"The theater going experience is about community, and the enjoyment that comes from experiencing stories with our friends and family," said Yolanda Macias, Chief Content Officer at Cinedigm. "Working with Fathom has given us the opportunity to share A Father's Legacy with audiences all over the country. It is a story of redemption and unlikely kinship, and it challenges us to look at the relationships we have built in our life. We could not think of a better way to honor Father's Day than by sharing this film with our audiences."

A Father's Legacy (previously titled The Old Man & The Pond) was the Official Selection of the Heartland International Film Festival and the Official Selection of the Soho International Film Festival.

Fathom Events and Cinedigm will screen A Father's Legacy in movie theaters nationwide on Thursday, June 17 at 7:00 p.m. local time. For a complete list of theater locations, visit the Fathom Events website (theaters and participants are subject to change).
