📝🎬 A special note from Director, Jeffery Lando
“Dear Film lovers,
I love sharing this movie. It’s not like other movies I’ve made before where I’m trying to entertain, or give people a good time, or even convince them of something. With Lissa’s Trip it feels as though I’m trying to share a way to live, a paradigm, open up conversations about the nature of hierarchies, about being at the center of your creative self. It’s far more interesting and delightful and I can’t wait to share it with more people.”
~ Jeffery Lando
