Serenity Media Group C.E.O. and Executive Producer, Christie Hsiao is pleased to announce the company's new project based on Pat Moffett's critically acclaimed book "Ice Cream in the Cupboard."

With the working title still to be locked in, Hsiao's vast relationships with financiers and distribution companies helped land solid financing for the film and secure some of the top talent in the film industry including Jaime King, Tobin Bell, Dana Ashbrook, Andy Dick, Sean Whalen and Amber Frank.

"I am so excited to have a young, talented group of filmmakers and an amazing cast to be a part of this project," says Hsiao. "Pat Moffett's book is so timely, he tells a beautiful story about Early Onset Alzheimer's and how it affects a loving marriage. I was so compelled to bring his book to the screen to raise awareness and support families and caregivers around the world to better take care of themselves and patients. This is a love story everyone can relate to, to know when to let go and move on."

As the EP and the main producer on this project, Hsiao hired screenwriters to adapt Moffett's book as well as hired the entire cast and crew. Next up for Hsiao are two projects to being shooting in China with the completion of this wrap. She continues to work creatively with talent both in the United States and China to co-produce and co-finance projects with a global appeal. In addition to her amazing accomplishments, Hsiao is also a New York Times Best-Selling author of "Journey to Rainbow Island."
