"The best tribute isn't a speech—it's a bucket list." An official trailer is available for this documentary film titled There's a Hole In My Bucket, which is playing next at the Newport Beach Film Festival this fall. The film follows Lord of the Rings author J.R.R. Tolkien's great grandson Royd Tolkien taking us on a big adventure. Roy's brother, Mike, was diagnosed with ALS (aka motor neuron disease). Royd nursed him through his final years of life to find that Mike had left him his bucket list to fulfill on his behalf – but he won't know what he's facing until the tasks are revealed. After his younger brother is gone, Royd, the risk-averse great-grandson of J.R.R., inherits a sealed list of fifty intense challenges that he never agreed to and cannot refuse.
