It's going to cover dark subject matter, but it will be respectfully and beautifully done. I've worked with Jabar on professional projects before, and I can speak highly of the quality of his work and his careful handling of sensitive topics. Here are the casting details. ******************************************** Title: “Illusion” Characters: Star: Late 20’s, depressed, slightly androgynous young woman, dealing with a low income job, anxiety, and generally trying to make her place in the world. She experiences trauma from losing Nina, and at one point is in danger of dying. Nina: Late 20s very fem, and naturally gothic looking woman, who has always helped Star smile through her pain. Throughout the story, Nina is adamant about protecting Star from Death. Drug Addict: Late 30s to early 40s, scraggly, unkempt, and sickly man, with a numbed cold, angry look in his eyes. Very sociopathic character. Death: A male figure, clad in a monks robe and hood, as well as a zentai suit, that completely covers his face and hands. He is almost a complete shadow, and he has only one purpose, specific to his namesake. He is completely perfunctory and shows no emotion throughout the story. Star's Therapist: Mid 30s or early 40s woman, with her own office. Very progressively minded, and patient. Harrassing Man at Bar #1: Late 30s or early 40s, average looking midwestern guy, with a very noticeable leer. Harrassing Man at Bar #2: Late 30s or early 40s, average looking midwestern guy, with a very noticeable leer. Harrassing Man at Bar #3: Late 30s or early 40s, average looking midwestern guy, with a very noticeable leer. ******************************************** Here are some notes and links from Jabar: "I’d like to begin in late July or early August. No budget – but I will pay half of anyone's gas expenses and provide food. The end result will look very professional and polished, and ready for film festivals."

Thank you very much!
