Pan-American Highway
The Pan-American Highway is a network of roads stretching across the American continents and measuring about in total length. Except for a rainforest break of approximately , called the Darién Gap, the roads link almost all of the Pacific coastal countries of the Americas in a connected highway system. According to "Guinness World Records", the Pan-American Highway is the world's longest "motorable road". However, because of the Darién Gap, it is not possible to cross between South America and Central America with conventional highway vehicles. Without an all-terrain vehicle, it is necessary to circumnavigate this terrestrial stretch by sea.
Jason Sherman (videographer)
In 2015, Sherman came across the oldest road in America, known as the King's Highway (Charleston to Boston) which was not far from his residence. Sherman interviewed over fifty historians, experts, teachers, professors and politicians. He then wrote, directed, produced, and edited ""The King’s Highway"". The film won the Best Feature Documentary award at the 2016 First Glance Film festival. It was added to the Amazon Video library and independent streaming platform Indieflix. The film aired on WHYY-TV during the months of June and July 2017. Shortly after, Sherman received a contract from Los Angeles-based film distributor Indie Rights for worldwide distribution.
