Six months after the founders came home, the city's paper went through her filmography and put a Juárez name on it.

[Back to News](https://newdiscovery.agency/news/) 

On October 17, 2019, El Diario de Juárez ran a profile of Liz Pasillas under the headline "Juarense de película", written by María Martínez.

The piece traced a route that started in the city and came back to it. She came to cinema by acting in student shorts directed by Jonathan Herrera, then at New Mexico State University; she studied business administration at El Paso Community College and went into film anyway; the two founded New Discovery Media in New York, producing for David Bisbal, Patty Cantú, Ivy Queen, Disney and Target, and then moved to Miami and into independent film.

The paper reported that she had most recently worked as assistant producer on the short film _Me 3.769_, which won in the developed-project category at the international film festival in Oaxaca and was carried on HBO Latino, and that she had taken a Bronze Telly for travel branded content earlier that year. It listed the virtual reality documentary _La promesa_ among her work, along with pieces on migration, refugees and the lives of Latina women.

"Me siento muy contenta y orgullosa como mujer de tener la oportunidad de romper con esos estigmas respecto a nosotras en el área del cine", she told the paper — proud, as a woman, of the chance to break the stigmas attached to women in film.

The [Telly](https://newdiscovery.agency/news/bronze-telly-award-2019-uniquely-orlando/) and [Malabar on HBO](https://newdiscovery.agency/news/malabar-short-film-hbo-liz-pasillas/) are the same year's other film credits; [La promesa](https://newdiscovery.agency/case-studies/la-promesa/) is the VR documentary the article names.
