Today on Live Your Dreams, we follow filmmaker Christina Rose on a journey that feels nothing short of an odyssey one that spans continents, generations, and nearly a century of forgotten history.

Her new documentary, The Lost Voice, takes Christina deep into the Brazilian Amazon as she uncovers the untold story of her great-grand aunt Pola Brückner, believed to be the first woman to ever film in the rainforest. From the bustling streets of Rio de Janeiro to the riverbanks of Belém, the raw wild of Marajó Island, and the pulse of São Paulo, Christina retraces a film expedition frozen in time reviving a legacy the world almost lost.

Along her path, she makes a stunning archaeological discovery: long-lost railway tracks buried beneath decades of soil and silence, a moment that reignites cultural pride and moves respected historians to tears. Working alongside experts like Elena Welper, Wolfgang Fuhrmann, and Rodrigo Campos, Christina pieces together a narrative that blends adventure, scholarship, and the enduring power of human determination.

As her findings head to SOCINE 2025, Christina’s odyssey reminds us that film is more than art it’s a vessel that carries memory across time. This episode is an invitation into her courage, her purpose, and the voice she’s helping the world hear again.

In this first installment of our multi-part series, we’re back in the studio discussing our upcoming trip to the American Film Market (AFM) where we’ll be representing five original Intellectual Properties under LCP Studios. We break down what AFM actually is, why it matters for independent creators, and how we’re approaching the market strategically as we build, pitch, and distribute our IP's.

In Part 1, we take a deep dive into Missy’s Voice a powerful anti-bullying drama that has just wrapped production. Written by Karen Goeller, the film stars Bruna Novais, Braxton Paul, Eva Jette, Alexis V. Martinez, and Margot Bersh, alongside industry veterans John Bianco, Michele Frantzeskos, Chris Victor, and Francesca Ruscio. Missy’s Voice was filmed at Mt. Olive High School in Flanders NJ, we discuss how it was working with the Mt. Olive School District and the New Jersey Film Commission.

In this episode, we share the creative process, the emotional heart of the story, and what it means to bring a message-driven film to life with students, educators, and rising talent. This episode sets the stage for AFM and the projects we’ll be championing there.

Beyond the lens, Saam’s curiosity has taken him everywhere from hosting R37, an immersive musical gathering inside a Los Angeles cathedral, to swimming with polar bears in the Arctic Circle. He’s also a sought-after mentor and speaker, guiding others through his Superpowers Workshops and keynote talks at the OFFF Festival and UCSB’s Art Studio Commencement.
