Emmerich’s Fireside Films produced the film, alongside Christian Baha and Farrelly, with FilmNation handling production services and international sales. Their entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to getting great independent films made is incredibly exciting. I can’t wait to jump in with Glen and the Infrared team,” Emmerich said.
