Welcome to our story

I started writing BETWEEN LIFETIMES in 2006. My son Lucas would sleep behind me as I typed away. I based the child's character on Lucas. My intention was to complete the script quickly, so I could cast Lucas as that child. As the script grew, so did Lucas.

Flash forward. It's 2012. Lucas is at least half a foot taller than me. The story came into its own after more than a few re-writes, and now I find myself on a roller coaster ride of ups and downs in an attempt to bring BEWTWEEN LIFETIMES to the big screen.

Carrie Clark , Lauri Hakola, and I (Antonio Weiss) are preparing to go film in Paraguay south America, in the next few months. BETWEEN LIFETIMES has become EL RIO DE LAS VIDAS, as it was translated in Spanish to adapt it to the culture and languages of Paraguay (Spanish and Guarani)

Planing the rest of the year. Colorado in June. Paraguay in July/August, New York in September. We just bought another camera (Sony) and the slate arrived yesterday.


I emailed to a friend in Paraguay. She found a  wild life preserve that might come in really handy when we are on location there.


My move is coming to an end. I tossed many things away, found more pictures for locations, put many things away in boxes. It is time for a fresh reading of EL RIO DE LAS VIDAS.  But now, I am having a delicious dinner with my friend Gustav Alsina in his house in Cordova, NM., an old remodeled church --the perfect place to live for a set designer.
