So my partner and I were finally able to establish a storyline on what we want to do for this project and it will be very interesting to see how we pull this off because a lot of hands would have to be on deck in order to really make this project work. The story revolves around a grandmother who reflects on her youth as she is telling the passionate love story of how she and her grandfather met to her grandchildren. When I first heard of the idea from my partner Nati, I was immediately taken back to a show that I really loved that a had a similar storyline known as "How I Met Your Mother". The storyline for How I Met Your Mother shows a similar concept in what we intend to do however, they chose to follow the genre of comedy and have that be the focus point of their series. However, our group will focus more on the drama aspect having the story be more personal and very character driven. Moreover the aspect of having it be a foreign film would also be very interesting in the sense that it would further increase the level of emotional connection the audience would have with its characters since the culture the characters live in impacts their identities. The setting of the story has changed since our first idea which is now that since the story might now be a foreign based film the 1950's era would be where the setting would take place and it would most likely bee in a hispanic culture such as Cuba, Puerto Rico, or Colombia. The setting of the film will play a vital role int he storyline and how you se the development of the characters in just the two opening minutes.  I had also found some cool ideas for clothing since this does take part in the 1950's clothing and hair design as well as dialogue all play very crucial points in which the authenticity that the film is trying to represent is shown.

This is Puerto Rico in the 1950's a potential design idea that could be used.
