1. Writing Struggle for 6 Months and Having to Stay Up All Night

Coming from a Chinese family who decided to convert to Islam, Larissa Chou wanted to share her life story. She poured her story into a book titled "Rissa: A Life Choice." She wrote the book to serve as motivation for her readers.

Larissa admitted that she had to write the book for 6 months. Not only that, Larissa used her spare time to gradually write the book. She had to write at night when her son was asleep. At that time, her son, Muhammad Yusuf Alvin Ramadhan, was only 2 years old. Fortunately, after going through the storm of her divorce with Alvin Faiz, her book will now be adapted into a feature film.

2. Is the Story with Alvin Faiz Erased?

In an interview with the media, Larissa then gave a glimpse of the storyline in her upcoming film. Although she doesn't know the details of the film's preparation yet, Larissa kindly shared the plot and ending spoilers of the film.

"I don't know yet. Everything is from the production side," said Larissa. Alvin Faiz's ex-wife further stated that there are differences between the book and the film. Especially in the ending. Larissa also mentioned that there are changes in the ending of the book that are different from the film script.

"The ending doesn't match the book. In the book, it's a happy ending, I found my soulmate. But in the film, it's sad because it turns out we're not meant to be," said Larissa. Her confession is likely to erase the storyline when she meets her ex-husband, so that the film's storyline will focus more on her life story, struggle, conversion process, family conflicts, and inspiring stories.
