One Person Can Change Your Life Forever

Bella took the Toronto Film Festival's People's Choice Award, a distinction which has put it in the company of films such as American Beauty, Life Is Beautiful and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Inspired by a true story, this feature debut shows how one day in New York alters the lives of two people forever.
The movie follows Jose (Eduardo VerÁstegui), a handsome soccer star who is on his way to sign a multi-million dollar contract when a series of events unfold that bring his career to an abrupt end. Having retreated from the world, the once-famous athlete now works as a cook at his brother Manny's Mexican restaurant in Manhattan.
A beautiful waitress, Nina, (Tammy Blanchard: The Good Shepherd), struggling to make it in New York City, discovers something about herself that she's unprepared for. In one irreversible moment, their lives are turned upside down... until a simple gesture of kindness brings them both together, transforming an ordinary day intoan unforgettable one.
Powerful, passionate and always unpredictable, Bella reminds us of the surprises that await us in each new day and that sometimes it takes no more than a moment to transform our lives forever.
