CASTING CALL
Tim: Male / mid-twenties Works in the box office of the cinema. He’s a bit of a space buff, it’s his curiosity that fuels his slightly philosophical disposition. Tim is sad the cinema is closing down, more so because now he has to work some place else where him, Sean and Mira can’t do what they want. Though it might not seem this way, he’s more concerned with the fact that he’s losing the close knit bond between Sean and Mira.
Sean: Male / late twenties He works in the cafe of the cinema. Brash and loud, Sean doesn’t shy away from an experience. When something is planned out and he’s excited, he struggles to focus on anything else. Like Tim, he’s sad the cinema is closing but at the same time, he’s excited to pursue his next career path which is to host his own radio show.
Mira: Female / mid-twenties She’s the projectionist of the cinema. Genuine and down to earth, Mira often values other people’s enjoyment over her own. She has strong and quite elitist views surrounding film and digital. She’s also sad the cinema is closing but she knows that she wants the same job, just elsewhere.
Filming in Edinburgh, travel and food covered.
Production to take place over 7 days in early-March 2024
