Details:

Casting Brief Lynda (Female Lead) Age: 35 - 40 Genre: Short Film (12 mins) Lynda has waited a lifetime for today. After 18 years of imprisonment at the hands of her family, liberation from abuse and captivity has finally come. Feeling scared and confused, Lynda has to adapt to a normal way of life. With a new identity, she is relocated to a quiet Yorkshire town, and her journey from imprisonment to freedom begins.


Initially, the small dramas and realities of the everyday become too much for her. As a way of coping, Lynda alienates herself from the community and from the support of social services. At this point, the help she so desperately needs arrives from an unexpected source.


Lynda is a mixture of emotions, and we are looking for an actress who can portray her anxious and fragile state of mind leading to self-empowerment with honesty and sensitivity. As filmmakers we aim for the film to be a counterpoint to the medias reporting of such abuses.


We want to tell the story from the perspective of the victim, and the crime that occurs within a loving family. This film will help people to understand the cause, and the damaging effects.


We are shooting in Yorkshire and London during 21-31 October and we can offer you a professional and creative environment, working with a mature and passionate team. The film will be screened at the British Film Institute and we can offer you master DVDs and your traveling expenses.


Please respond by emailing the Producer Paris Chaliha your CV and headshot to email address:
