Hi, we are Deza & Tjibbe. We are writing a fiction film about a 34-year-old boy with Frontotemporal Dementia.
We both have someone close to us with the disease, so we can speak about this well. We also noticed that in most media, it is only reported that people over 60 have dementia or Alzheimer's, and with the film, we want to show that younger people can also get the disease and how it can appear in different forms.
Here is the synopsis: A 34-year-old man with an early form of dementia struggles with the fragile boundary between memory and reality. Through an experimental treatment, he delves into his past and relives moments with his parents. A visual and poetic experiment about memory, loss, and the thin line between past and present. We also show the perspective of Teun's family (parents) in the film.

What we offer
An opportunity to star in an educational and experimental film about a boy with an important story. The filming days will be enjoyable (with catering, of course). This project is produced by Cut Collective Studios.

Description

We are looking for someone who would like to play the role respectfully and who would also be willing to do research into Frontotemporal Dementia beforehand.
