Cast Needed for Short Film

Seeking key cast members for a new short film by award winning director Nichola Tetlow.

Jo (playing age 10, actual age 8-14):
Jo is a friendly boy who has become introverted due to the strain of the breakdown of his family. He is skinny, his appetite often affected by the circumstances at home.

Ron (playing age mid 40s, actual age 35-50):
Ron is a quiet and focused man. He is a builder and handiman by trade. Ron loves his son very much, and looks forward to the day when he has a suitable home for them to live in together again. He spends as much time with Jo as he can, and does not realise the full extent of how abandoned Jo feels.

Wendy (playing age mid 30s, actual age 30-40):
Wendy has a long history of theft. She operates via a skewed moral compass and does not empathise well with others. She speaks slightly too loud and slightly too slow. Despite appearances to the contrary, we discover in the course of the film that she does love her son, but does not understand how to be a good mother.

Please Note:

Filming is scheduled for the last two weeks in October (exact dates TBC), the project will be crowdfunded, and as such is expenses only.

The positions would be suitable for those looking to contribute to a worthwhile project, and/or gain valuable experience on set.
