“We are very excited about partnering with Starz Digital to get this beautiful movie out there,” added producer Monica Aguirre Diez Barroso of Camellia Entertainment. “Through Boulevard, Dito was able to capture Robin Williams at his best, and we couldn’t believe more in the team helping us share this piece of his legacy with audiences.”
The Plot:
