It will make its world premiere Saturday at the Slamdance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.

You may recall Miles captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of people in November of 2013 when the Make A Wish Foundation answered his desires to become Batman, transforming San Francisco into Gotham City.

Miles was diagnosed with leukemia at 18 months and he is now in remission.
