PRODUCERS

Giulia Caruso and Ki Jin Kim are award-winning producers and founders of Nonetheless Productions. After moving to Los Angeles from Italy and South Korea respectively, Giulia and Ki Jin started the filmmaker collective Nonetheless Productions with partner Gorav Kalyan.

Their latest feature, COLUMBUS (starring John Cho, Haley Lu Richardson and Parker Posey) premiered at Sundance and Rotterdam 2017. COLUMBUS is self-distributed through the first Sundance Creative Distribution Fellowship – after opening in theaters on August 4th, it went on to gross over one million at the box office.
