Apple TV+ announced today that it has landed the global rights to the acclaimed 2025 Sundance Film Festival selection and Festival Favourite Award-winning documentary, “Come See Me in the Good Light,” from director Ryan White. Following its world premiere at the festival, the film has been widely praised as a “beautifully crafted” and “exceptional documentary” that offers a “touching look at the fragility of human life.” The film also won the Audience Award at the Boulder Film Festival, Cleveland International Film Festival, and Full Frame Documentary Film Festival. “Come See Me in the Good Light” will make its global debut on Apple TV+ this fall.
