Meet Gianna Diaz!

Hello Cambridge friends! Today, you will meet Gianna Diaz, the main character in our film. I hope you're excited! The movie takes place in 2024, which means Gianna was born in the early 2000s. She currently lives in the United States but has Hispanic roots from Maracaibo, Venezuela. Because of her background, we wanted to make sure her last name fit her where her ancestors are originally from. That’s why we started searching for last names that matched her Latin ancestors.

It was important for us to choose a last name that felt real and meaningful. Since Gianna’s family is from Venezuela, we looked at common Hispanic last names that could belong to someone with her background. After some research, we decided on the last name Diaz. It’s a beautiful name that is common in many Spanish speaking countries. It also sounds natural with Gianna making it a perfect match.

I can't wait for you to learn more about Gianna and her story! Stay tuned for more updates about the film. Here are where me and my partners got the idea from!
