Carlos y Marena se embarcarán en un viaje emocional para encontrar la pieza que falta y traer alegría a sus vidas.Declaración del director:
"Bella" está inspirada en una historia real. Recuerdo vívidamente el día en que un querido amigo me confió los desafíos que él y su esposa enfrentaron al intentar concebir. Después de numerosos intentos y varios abortos espontáneos desgarradores, decidieron probar la fecundación in vitro y las inyecciones hormonales. Desafortunadamente, cuando esos esfuerzos también fallaron y para llenar la alegría que faltaba en sus vidas, decidieron adoptar.Su travesía me conmovió profundamente, permaneciendo en mis pensamientos durante mucho tiempo. Más tarde, supe que otro amigo cercano también había luchado con la infertilidad y finalmente decidió adoptar tras intentos fallidos de fecundación in vitro.Estas experiencias compartidas revelaron una lucha común que enfrentan muchos, y con la colaboración de mi querido amigo Chaz Mena, dimos vida a estas historias en "Bella". Esta historia es un testimonio de la búsqueda de un sueño, el dolor de la pérdida y, lo más importante, el poder perdurable de la esperanza.
