ays after its historic Oscar
win, “CODA” is headed
back to movie theaters this
weekend.
Apple rereleased the fi lm,
about a hearing teenager living
with Deaf parents, in over 600
U.S. locations with open cap-
tions on Friday.
“CODA” — which is the ab-
breviation for Children of Deaf
Adults — became the fi rst
movie released by a streaming
platform to win the top prize of
best picture at the 94th Annual
Academy Awards.
The fi lm’s director, Sian
Heder, won for best adapted
screenplay, and Troy Kotsur won
best supporting actor — be-
coming the fi rst Deaf male actor
to win an Oscar, and the second
Deaf performer.
“As our industry recognizes
‘CODA’ with its highest honor,
we’re excited once again to
bring this moving fi lm to the-
aters so that audiences can
share in the experience of
watching it together,” Apple
Original Films’ Distribution
executive Erica Anderson said
in a statement. “As with previous
theatrical runs, all showings will
have open captions, so that the
fi lm is accessible to the deaf and
hard-of-hearing communities.”
The fi lm debuted at the 2021
Sundance Film Festival and
was sold to Apple for a record-
breaking $25 million.
The 111-minute coming-of-
age comedy-drama, based on
the 2014 French-Belgian fi lm
“La Famille Belier,” was released
in limited theaters cinemas last
August.
“CODA” also stars Emilia
Jones, Eugenio Derbez and
Academy Award-winning trail-
blazer Marlee Matlin.
