Amy Poehler is making her documentary directorial debut this March with Lucy and Desi.

The film explores the unlikely partnership and enduring legacy of one of the most prolific power couples in entertainment history: Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. They risked everything to be together, their love leading to the most influential show in the history of television, I Love Lucy.

The film serves as a companion of sorts to Aaron Sorkin’s awards contender Being the Ricardos, which was snapped by Amazon Studios and released by the online giant last year. Now, Amazon is delving back into the showbiz star couple’s legacy, with Lucy and Desi set to premiere on Friday 4th March. Here’s the trailer:
