Dicapta and New Day Films team up to make 18 movies accessible

 

Dicapta and New Day Films are working together in order to bring AD and CC for 18 films, among which are the 2019 movie “Growing People” and the 2020 documentary “Trust Me”.

This is the second time both companies are working together, in order to bring accessible content to a larger variety of audiences. As such, the accessibility for these 18 movies will be available on the All4Acess platform.
