After the successful collaboration debut between Voltage Pictures and Vertical with the US release of Beautiful Disaster, the team has landed the US distribution rights of another YA romance, See You On Venus.
So, the film is based on the not yet released novel of the same name. See You On Venus follows Mia and Kyle (Virginia Gardner and Alex Aiono). The two are misfit American teens that travel to Spain searching for Mia’s birth mother. However, lessons are learned as they travel through Andalusia and fall in love. The two discover that the most important question isn’t who gave you life, but what you decide to do with it.
