“For the first time, global audiences are invited into theaters to witness this pivotal chapter unfold…” Melania Trump said of the film, in a statement shared by Amazon News. “A private, unfiltered look as I navigate family, business, and philanthropy on my remarkable journey to becoming First Lady of the United States of America.”

Rap superstar Nicki Minaj, an ardent supporter of the administration, was one of several high-profile guests spotted at the Jan. 29 premiere of “Melania” at the Trump-Kennedy Center.

The release of “Melania” was not without its snags, as the film was pulled from theaters in South Africa after an abrupt cancellation and, later, a theater in northwestern Oregon for offering its own description on its marquee.

Grossing more than $16.6 million worldwide over the course of its theatrical run, “Melania” proved popular among domestic and international audiences. Critics, on the other hand, weren’t impressed.

Here’s what to know about the March 9 release of “Melania,” including how to watch.
