Description

A 3-minute short film titled Somewhere

SEEKING:
Four keen, motivated and talented actors based in and around Manchester

ROLE 1: JAYNE
A woman in her 20s who portrays a socially reserved yet observant diner waitress. Her comfort with regular customers is challenged by the presence of new faces.

ROLE 3: SPENCER
A man in his 20s who is a young thief driven by the need to survive rather than cruelty or greed. Deeply anxious, he presents as a classic bad-boy archetype.
