The international co-production between The Ebersole Hughes Company, Candivision and Maquina is written and directed by the creative team of P. David Ebersole and Todd Hughes.
Flowers Para Los Muertos has Hill playing New York photographer Aviva Lake, who unexpectedly inherits a house in Mexico, overseen by real estate agent Raven Johnson (Ross), who earlier did shady business with Lake’s estranged gay husband. blogherads.adq.push(function () { blogherads .defineSlot( 'medrec', 'gpt-article-mid-article-uid0' ) .setTargeting( 'pos', ["mid-article1","mid-articleX","mid","mid-article"] ) .setTargeting( 'viewable', 'yes' ) .setSubAdUnitPath("ros\/mid-article") .addSize([[300,250],[2,2],[300,251],[620,350],[2,4],[4,2],[320,480],[620,366]]) .setClsOptimization("minsize") ; }); Related Stories TV 'Sorry for Your Loss' Showrunner Etan Frankel Strikes First-Look Deal With Fox Entertainment Business Amazon Gives Entertainment Giants a New TikTok-Fighting Tool: AI-Powered Vertical Video Tech
