Lily D. Moore (“Never Have I Ever”), Erica Durance (“North to Home,” “Open by Christmas”), Benjamin Ayres (“You, Me & the Christmas Trees,” “Detention Adventure”) and David DeSanctis (“Where Hope Grows”) star in “Color My World with Love,” a new original premiering Sunday, June 12 (9 p.m. ET/PT) on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.
“Everyone has a dream to fall in love and get married one day, even people with disabilities,” said Lily D. Moore. “I hope viewers take away that ‘Color My World with Love’ is about painting your own story through your emotions and that we all have endless possibilities.”
Kendall (Moore) is a talented artist with Down Syndrome who creates beautiful paintings in the Impressionist style that reflect the reality of her subjects as she sees them. Thanks to the support of her mother, Emma (Durance), and grandmother, Bev (Karen Kruper, “The Wedding Veil”), Kendall is happy and thriving. Her life takes an exciting turn when she meets Brad (DeSanctis) in a cooking class at the local center for diverse learners and romance blooms.
Emma has spent the last 22 years trying to protect her daughter and has reservations about Kendall and Brad’s new relationship, especially when it quickly moves in a serious direction. Not wanting Kendall to experience heartbreak, Emma tries to slow things down. With the help of Nic (Ayres), a longtime family friend of Brad’s, Emma slowly accepts that Kendall is ready to – and should – live her own life. In the process, Emma learns a lesson from Kendall about how to look beyond what’s in front of you and see the beauty that exists. And, just maybe, she finds herself ready to find love once again.
“Color My World with Love” is from Spell Love Road Productions Ltd. Jonathan Eskenas, Kimberley Bradley, Denielle Jackson and Orly Adelson are executive producers. The movie was produced by Charles Cooper. Peter Benson directed from a script by Pamela Wallace and Charlie Shahnaian & Shari Simpson.
