Penelope's Story

The movie is very interesting from the different aspect it involves. The footage is awesome and the script as well as the characters are well prepared for every scene.

I think the cast was also a good election since they played every single scene with lots of professionalism and the creativeness shown deserves recognition.

The soundtrack of the film is also a outstanding it was good selected because it transmits the correct environment for every situation displayed in the screen.

I recommend the movie for the story, the characters, the soundtrack and all the features it provides.

I hope you enjoy the film as well as I did.

This film powerfully stirs your emotions, illuminating the struggles countless women endure across all social strata worldwide. Many remain silent, fearing judgment, criticism, and a lack of empathy. Those who dare to help often stand alone, relying on their own strength like unsung heroes.

With raw authenticity, the narrative unveils the silent pain of women navigating systemic inequalities, societal pressures, and personal battles. From rural villages to urban centers, it exposes universal challenges-gender-based discrimination, economic hardship, and emotional suppression-faced by those whose voices are stifled by fear of retribution. The storytelling, both heart-wrenching and inspiring, weaves tales of resilience and quiet defiance.

Vivid characters humanize these struggles, portraying women who, against daunting odds, reclaim their agency through small acts of courage or tireless advocacy. Yet, the film unflinchingly reveals the toll of such bravery: isolation, exhaustion, and scarce institutional support. These women, often left to fend for themselves, embody a fierce, uncelebrated heroism.

A very moving movie!

I watched the film at a private screening in Ottawa. I went with my husband and we loved the production and the message it has. It touched my heart that I even cried in one of the scenes, this movie made us reflect about forgiveness and how you can transform your life for good with just one decision. I hope soon we will be able to see it in theatres or on digital platforms and be able to share it with my family and friends because I know it will touch many hearts and be a light in the lives of people who are going through these situations and feel they are lost. I wish I could see more of Lisetty's movies. So I definitely recommend this film! Watch it, it will change your life for the better.

Great movie very inspiring a lot of good messages. Would highly recommend to watch it, either by your self or with friends and family. The movie demonstrates the impact of how one uplifting person can change someone's life. Looking forward to the future of the director and I have no doubt she'll come out with great movies time and time again. I've already seen the movie twice and would 100% watch it a third. I had the privilege of watching Penelope's Story at film festival on the big screen. The two main characters do an awesome job making you feel how they're feeling in each scene. Again would highly recommend.

Penelope's Story helped me healed. I was able to see forgiveness from another perspective and it gave me hope.

This is a movie that brings up light to the world and I want to see more about these type of movies.

I had the amazing opportunity to see this movie at the Latin American film festival in Ottawa and I was glad that it has Spanish subtitles. Me and my friends were blessed by it and I can't wait for it to be available to the public so I can share it with my family and some friends who had gone through a form of abuse.

In the Q&A with the director and actors I had the opportunity to know why this movie is so closed to the Director's heart and felt empowered by her journey to overcome mental abuse. I'm hopeful that this movie will touch many lives as it did with mine. So Watch It! I 100% recommend it!
