The Diocese of Honolulu sponsored a private screening of “Bella” at St. Stephen’s Diocesan Center’s auditorium on Oct. 4 complete with popcorn, hot dogs and soda. The goal was to promote future Hawaii screenings of the movie, which has been lauded for its life-affirming message. “Bella” (left, a scene from the movie) centers on two New Yorkers — a former soccer star and now restaurant cook, who is still dealing with a past tragedy, and a waitress at the same restaurant, who discovers she’s unexpectedly pregnant. The film shows how the two help and learn from each other in the span of a day. Metanoia Films’ has labeled its movie both “a love story that goes beyond romance” and how “one person can change your life forever.” “Bella” will be released in Hawaii on Nov. 9 and the day before Aloha Pregnancy Care and Counseling Centers is hosting an evening screening at the Regal Dole Cannery Theaters.
