CASTING – STUDENT HORROR SHORT FILM

SHOOT: 14th – 17th March 2024 LEEDS

Jonathan

A butch, muscular man in his 20s, Jonathan isn’t a man seeking a life beyond his means. Small insular moments between the people he loves are what he lives for as long as he has someone whom he really cares by his side, and Martin is that person.

Jonathan’s life is filled with tragedy, having seen family and friends pass on. When you see this death surround you, how does it change you? Does it harden your exterior? Or does it soften your soul? For Jonathan, as much as he pretends to not feel, he feels deeply, and in a way perhap more vulnerable than even Martin.

Martin represents his entire world, and when Martin falls ill, someone who he loves with everything in him, he doesn’t know what to do with hims He is forced to confront himself, and question just why he is willing to sacrifice everything for the man he loves?

Martin

A slender, almost angelic man in his 20s. A successful painter and artist, Martin lives his life with a profound love for existing. He is a contemplative, deeply emotional person, revelling in the small “insignificant” moments of life. With Jonathan by his side, they lived an almost idyllic life until his vampiric illness inexplicably developed….

After a month of exhausting search, Martin hangs on the verge of death. His mind is plagued with questions and self turmoil His life, his future, his way of living has been taken from him.

Stripped from his control by his body inexplicably, how could he let it take Jonathan? Does he live as he desperately wants or does he let his love and allow the final choice in his life to be taken from him?
