MIAMI, May 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Professional model
and breast cancer survivor, Christine
Handy, is set to inspire and empower audiences with her
autobiographical story in the upcoming film "Hello Beautiful."
Christine's remarkable journey leads from the world of high fashion
through a terrible battle against breast cancer to offer a profound
testament of resilience and hope. Filmed in Boston, the cinematic adaptation of
Christine's bestselling book stars Tricia
Helfer as Willow, with a screenplay written and directed by
award-winning director Ziad
Hamzeh.
Plot Synopsis: "Hello Beautiful" is a deep dive into some of the
darkest chapters of life, as wife, mother, and working model Willow
weathers the storms of debilitating illness. Navigating the seismic
emotional struggles that threaten to derail both her self-worth and
her faith, "Hello Beautiful" is a story of possibility– in a tale
of transcendence that shows the beauty of the human
spirit.
"If I communicate nothing else in my life, I want people to know
this: You don't have to give up," Christine said. "We've all heard
so many sad stories about how awful cancer is. And I understand
that perspective. Cancer is brutal. But that doesn't always have to
be the end of the story. We can fight it with every single breath.
Hope is a light that can guide you back home."
Christine's story goes far beyond her cancer diagnosis – it is a
metamorphosis from seeking validation in an exciting career to
discovering the raw power of inner strength. Despite facing her own
mortality, and the transfiguration of her own body, Christine
emerged as a beacon of light who helps others to navigate the same
path. From fighting cancer and winning, to all of the surgical
obstacles, reconstructive hurdles, and emotional battles that come
after.
"This is more than just a movie, it's an anthem of self-love,"
said Christine. "I want people to move beyond all these superficial
validations that we think are so important. It's a healing place
that I want others to find as well. That is my story – that is
Willow's story. Because I tell people all the time: if I can find
my strength and learn to love myself fully, so can you."
