DESCRIPTION:
(from The Walt Disney Company's press release, March 2022) Disney Original Documentary announced today the acquisition of worldwide rights to the critically acclaimed and sought-after documentary film Mija. As part of the deal, FX will retain the rights to develop scripted content based on the film. The film received rave reviews out of Sundance, with Indiewire declaring Mija a "tribute to those children of immigrants, especially those in families divided across borders... Mija beams with the knowledge that in its specificity it speaks to millions." Mija is the debut feature from Isabel Castro, a four-time Emmy-nominated Mexican American filmmaker and is produced by Tabs Breese and Yesenia Tlahuel. It is presented by Impact Partners in association with Cinereach and The Concordia Studio Fellowship. Executive producers include Jenny Raskin, Lauren Haber, Geralyn White Dreyfous, Marni E.J. Grossman, Rahdi Taylor and Davis Guggenheim. Co-executive producers include Jenn Lee Smith, Jennifer and Jonathan Allan Soros, Adam and Melony Lewis, and Kelsey Koenig. |
