About the film

A short psychological drama about two women whose decades-long relationship has dissolved into obsessive co-dependance, tenderness, and mutual destruction. A relationship where love and cruelty coexist so tightly that neither can tell where one ends and the other begins.

Description
The role of Pauline

Pauline is a restless, contradictory woman in her 40s. A former dancer, currently working night shifts as a caregiver. She moves with a lingering elegance, even when she is emotionally unsettled.
Pauline is sharp-tongued and reactive. She resents how much she needs Agatha, hates how much space Agatha takes up inside her, but she also cannot imagine surviving without her.
Her look is dreamy and relaxed, with pinned-back hair and distinctive accessories that reflect her inner self.

We are looking for an actor who can convey emotional contradictions through small gestures, physical presence and shifts in emotional expressions. An actor comfortable with portraying a queer character is a must! The role calls for a naturalistic performance with a convincing sense of shared history with another character. Acting experience is preferable, but willingness is more important.

Period
Exact dates of shooting are to be determined. End of November, depending on availability.
