CASTING

Production: Seder (working title) (Short Film)
Location: Montreal
Employer: Seder Productions (Non-ACTRA artist contracts)
Duration: 5 days, starts JANUARY 29TH


Payment is on a lo/no/deferred basis.

Director: Beverly. It is a film about a Jewish family dinner, taking place at a Seder during Passover. It is meant to show the family tensions and interesting dynamics that go on when all members get together. It is also about the conflict of traditional and modern viewpoints, and the different ways people choose to celebrate their customs.

1. Female / 41-50 yrs. / Any Ethnicity. This character is the mother of the family, named SARAH. She can have dark features or look 'Jewish'. We are somewhat open to different looks. Her character is one that loves to follow the traditions of her religion, but what with her career and kids, she feels guilty because she has lost touch with some aspects of the religion.

2. Female / 18-24 yrs. / Any Ethnicity.
This character is LEORA, the daughter of SARAH. She can look 'Jewish' with dark features, but we are open to other looks. LEORA is a bit spunky, stubborn, and very open-minded to other cultures, although she loves the traditions of the Jewish faith. Her open-mindedness sometimes causes friction with her family.

3. Male / 18-24 yrs. / African American.
This character is MARK, LEORA's boyfriend. The character is supposed to be an Ethiopian Jew, which causes tension and confusion among LEORA's traditionally white Jewish family. MARK is easygoing, indepedent, and strong-willed.

4. Male / 41-50 yrs. / Any Ethnicity.
This character is AARON, the father of the family. He loves following the traditions, but is more open-minded, and does not feel guilty for picking and choosing which traditions he celebrates.

5. Male / 6-10 yrs. / Any Ethnicity.
This is BRANDON, SARAH's nephew. He is bit of an attention-seeker, due to the fact that his mom is barely home. He is very needy, but really enjoys spending time with his family.

6. Female / 61+ yrs. / Any Ethnicity.
This character is BUBBIE RACHEL, the quintessential Jewish grandmother, who is always nagging her family members and judging them, but is doing it because she just really cares about them.

Concept
The scene starts during an 8 year-olds birthday party and he is about to get his gift which is an action-figure of the hero of the video game. The kids all want to play with it and torture it. The story is a parody and is funny; however it has violent scenes, shows blood and the use of weapons.
La scène commence lors de l’anniversaire du garçon de 8 ans et le moment d’ouvrir les cadeaux est arrivé. Le cadeau est le personnage principal du jeu vidéo. Les enfants sont super excités et veulent tous jouer avec. L’histoire est une parodie et à l’intention d’être drôle; par contre il y’a des scènes de violence contenant des scènes montrant du sang et des armes.
