Filmmaker and lifelong HIV/AIDS activist Monica Ord heard Theo Ikummaq's story of the catastrophic impact climate change was having on his Arctic home from a friend, producer Lloyd Phillips. After Lloyd personally introduced her to Theo she was so deeply moved that within months, and after enlisting the help of Sir Richard Branson, Ord found herself on a dogsled expedition in the Arctic. There she witnessed firsthand the profound changes that climate change is having on Theo's homeland. It was there on the ice that the idea for the film was born. Ord quickly enlisted the help of an army of visionaries - including James Cameron, John Paul DeJoria, scriptwriter and director Ezna Sands and actors Dakota Johnson and Mira Sorvino with just one hope in mind - to get Theo's message out in a way that would move people to action.

Lise Romanoff, CEO/Managing Director of Vision Films says, "We felt it important to share Chloe & Theo with as broad an audience as possible. The incredibly important messages of protecting and saving our planet, as well as opening our eyes to the issues of homelessness and intolerance could not be timelier."

Filmmaker Monica Ord shares, "I could not be any more thrilled and grateful to be working with Lise Romanoff and Vision Films. It's extremely rare to find any person or company that cares as much as you do about getting your message out. With Vision Films I've found exactly that. The perfect home for Chloe & Theo."

John Paul DeJoria, Co-Executive Producer said, "When you walk away from this film, I know there is no doubt that this will not only be a great entertaining event, but that message that the power to change the world that is still within us, will continue to be that way. It's we the people! Peace, love and happiness; enjoy this fine film."

Starring Dakota Johnson (50 Shades of Grey), Academy Award® and Golden Globe® winner Mira Sorvino (Mighty Aphrodite), Theo Ikummaq as himself, Ashley Springer (Teeth, The Wolf of Wall Street), Tony Award® and Grammy Award® winner André De Shields (Hadestown, Extreme Measures), and Eric Oram (Iron Man 3).
