“‘Diamante’ aims to highlight the cultural richness of the Dominican Republic, sharing Dominican culture, folklore, and landscapes with a wider audience, fostering enduring international appreciation for the ‘Republic of baseball,’” Cruz said.

“For many families, baseball offers a promising path to international opportunities and aspirations for a better quality of life, serving as a pillar of Dominican identity and is proud to be known as a major exporter of talent to the MLB,” Lluberes said.

“At ReachStar, we are committed to telling stories that resonate with audiences worldwide, and ‘Diamante’ truly showcases this dedication,” Thibault said.

“Through its powerful portrayal of friendship, self-discovery, and the pursuit of dreams, this film will touch the hearts and souls of viewers around the globe,” added Ratthé.

The project is supported by Marianna Vargas Gurilieva, Film Commissioner of the Dominican Republic Film Commission, and Héctor M. Valdez.
