The Unexpected And Intimate Portrait Of “The Queen Of Disco” Will Have Its World Premiere At The Berlin International Film Festival. HBO Original documentary LOVE TO LOVE YOU, DONNA SUMMER, directed by Oscar and Emmy-winning filmmaker Roger Ross Williams (“Life Animated,” HBO’s “The Apollo”) and Brooklyn Sudano, daughter of Donna Summer, debuts May 20, 2023 on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max.
Shaped by Summer’s own reflections, the memories of close family, friends and colleagues, and filled with the sounds of Summer’s songs, LOVE TO LOVE YOU, DONNA SUMMER is an in-depth look at the iconic artist as she creates music that takes her from the avant-garde music scene in Germany, to the glitter and bright lights of dance clubs in New York, to worldwide acclaim, her voice and artistry becoming the defining soundtrack of an era. A deeply personal portrait of Summer on and off the stage, the film features a wealth of photographs and never-before-seen home video footage – often shot by Summer herself – and provides a rich window into the surprising range of her artistry, from songwriting to painting, while exploring the highs and lows of a life lived on the global stage.
LOVE TO LOVE YOU, DONNA SUMMER is a Polygram Entertainment presentation, a Motto Pictures production, in association with One Story Up and Federal Films and presented by HBO Documentary Films. It is produced by Julie Goldman, Christopher Clements, Carolyn Hepburn, Roger Ross Williams, David Blackman with J. Daniel Torres as co-producer, and executive producers for HBO Nancy Abraham, Lisa Heller, and Sara Rodriguez.
