“A Brand New Day” is a testament to the power of love, hope, and strength. Lissette drew inspiration from her own life, crafting a narrative that resonates with audiences beyond those who have faced similar challenges. The screenplay features real-life characters, with the exception of Lissette’s father and a beloved dog, Bo. The addition of spirit characters adds a touch of imagination, humor, and music, making the story a true standout.
The Journey to Screenwriting
Lissette’s journey into screenwriting began during the pandemic in 2020, when she adapted her original book concept into a screenplay. With a strong desire to inspire others, she found that the medium of film allowed her to incorporate music and maximize her story’s impact. Although learning the intricacies of screenwriting was challenging, Lissette faced her greatest hurdle in balancing reality and fantasy within the narrative.
Future Projects and Collaborations
Lissette’s ultimate goal is to bring “A Brand New Day” to life through production. With a wealth of stories within the screenplay waiting to be explored, she is eager to continue writing and inspiring others. Currently, she is in discussions with producers from Colombia and the UK, paving the way for exciting future collaborations.
