When I read the Lighthouse International Film Festival’s publicity blurb about the Canadian film “Lissa’s Trip,” I knew I had to see it.

A struggling actress named Lissa, wonderfully played by Sofia Vassilieva, has to take a trip across Los Angeles for a potentially career-saving audition. But her trip turns into an altogether different kind of trip when she accidentally ingests a copious dose of liquid LSD before leaving for the audition.
