2nd CASTING CALL / Call Backs
FOR RHODE ISLAND SHORT FILM
Synopsis:
Enter the mind of a deranged man, who’s finally reached his breaking point. After a broken childhood of pain and misery, we see the fallout firsthand. Justice has no balance in an unstable mind. We’ll witness what years of repression can do as they finally erupt into a cataclysmic catastrophe right before your eyes. By digging into the catacombs of the mind, we witness how one man is able to manifest a new perspective which will transform his way of thought into new realms. Irrationality becomes his reality, as he reaches for serenity.
We currently have 2 roles to fill, all of which take place during the 1960’s:
LILLY - The Free Spirited Mom
-Caucasian
-Voluptuous
(We are looking for someone who can play a 25-35 year old female.) (*Actress should be comfortable with partial nudity)
This stay at home mom is mediocre at best when it comes to her house work. Unable to please her husband all of her joy from life comes from the love she holds for her little boy. She’s cute and has a certain sexiness to her which her husband always feels threatened by. Though dysfunctional and unfortunately tragic, her family is the center of her world and powered by a heart of pure gold she does all she can every moment of the day to try and keep this household warm and happy. Though extremely charismatic her noble intentions are immediately stifled by her husband’s heartless wrath. However she honorably never stops fighting this battle that she is unquestionably destined to lose.
MIKE - The Quiet Child
-Caucasian
(We are looking for someone who can play an 8-10 year old boy)
Tortured by the constant sights and sounds of his mother’s torments brought on by his own father, this boy remains silently conflicted and frozen from action. His traumatic childhood is set to mold his deeply disturbed outlook and understanding of the world around him, as this tormenting past will haunt him for life, constantly feeding his undying urge for vengeance.
