The following are 3 student films being shot in December:
ACTRA and NON ACTRA actors may apply
Faith in the Act:
Based on the true story of Esther Brandeau, this is the chronicle of her journey to the New World in 1736. Disguised as a young man named Jacques, Esther not only has to hide that she is woman, she also has to conceal the fact that she is Jewish in order to be allowed into New France. To be exposed meant to be thrown overboard by superstitious sailors who believed that Jews were bad luck. Now her life is endangered by a fellow immigrant, a young man named Joseph, whose curiosity about ‘Jacques’ threatens to expose the truth.
CallBack:
Daniel Frever, after nine years absence, must audition to be a part of his brother's life again.
Butts:
“Butts” is a mockumentary about Harry “Butts” Hannigan, a Rolling Stones roadie whose only job is to retrieve the cigarette butts discarded by Keith Richards during concerts in order to avoid burning the concert venue down. But Harry is an entrepreneur with a secret dream of cashing in. He has packaged and labeled every cigarette butt, hoping to sell his stash to serious Rolling Stones fans online. He’s just waiting for Keith to die to increase their value. It’s all a matter of who dies first.
