Cas­ting Call – Short Film “21 Days”

The new­ly foun­ded Film Coll­ec­ti­ve “Fabrik­Film” – part of Kul­tur­fa­brik Moa­bit e.V. – is loo­king for a cast for our debut short film 21 Days.

About the pro­ject:
21 Days tells the sto­ry of two que­er peo­p­le who fall in love but have only 21 days to spend tog­e­ther. As they dis­co­ver more and more how per­fect they are for each other they also have to batt­le the ques­ti­on what will hap­pen after the 21 Days. Will the foun­da­ti­on they are buil­ding be strong enough for a long-distance-rela­ti­onship?

Andy (22)
Andy is an exch­an­ge stu­dent who has only 21 days left in Ber­lin befo­re retur­ning to her fara­way home coun­try to con­ti­nue her life the­re. So far, her semes­ter abroad has been rather lonely — due to her social anxie­ty, she has bare­ly made any con­nec­tions and has spent most of her time pur­suing her pas­si­on: lite­ra­ry stu­dies. When she meets Oskar, this chan­ges dra­sti­cal­ly, and rea­li­ty beco­mes more exci­ting than all her books have been.
It is man­da­to­ry that you can speak with an accent from a coun­try far away from Cen­tral Euro­pe (Aus­tra­li­an, Ame­ri­can, Rus­si­an, Chi­ne­se, etc. — you name it).

Oskar (23)
Born and rai­sed in Ber­lin. He dreams of beco­ming a screen­wri­ter but doesn’t dare to pur­sue that dream. Over­all, he feels dis­sa­tis­fied with his life in Ber­lin — the con­stant par­ty­ing, the end­less situa­ti­onships, his for him meanin­g­less stu­dies — and doesn’t know what do to with him. Andy, who sup­ports his talent and brings emo­tio­nal depth and authen­ti­ci­ty to his life, gives him a new per­spec­ti­ve.

Sascha (25)
Sascha is Oskar’s best fri­end and his com­pa­n­ion in Berlin’s par­ty sce­ne. As Oskar gra­du­al­ly distances hims­elf from his old life — and thus from Sascha — Sascha rea­li­zes that may­be he has felt more for Oskar than just fri­end­ship.

Artist (any age)
Andy and Oskar meet an artist in the park who draws a por­trait of the two of them. For this role, we are loo­king for someone who can draw por­traits and also feels com­for­ta­ble per­forming in front of the came­ra.

Unfort­u­na­te­ly it is unpaid. But we wan­na crea­te a nice expe­ri­ence for you with a lot of oppur­tu­ni­ty to act and try things out. You should be proud of the finis­hed pro­duct of hop­eful­ly see it being play­ed at num­e­rous film­fes­ti­vals.
As we are plan­ning to shoot most­ly on weekends the work would be com­pa­ti­ble with a regu­lar jobs you do during the week. The shoo­ting will take place in Ber­lin.
