The film premiered at the Boulder International Film Festival on March 7, 2015, and was released in theaters on March 27 by 20th Century Fox. Home was promoted with the release of a prequel short film, Almost Home, which was shown in theaters in 2014. Rihanna created a concept album of the same name.
