Brief du réalisateur : Petite fille d’environ 6 ans, avec un âge caméra de 4 à 5 ans. Elle sera probablement assise dans un siège d’appoint (booster), donc nous cherchons une enfant pas trop grande, pour préserver ce jeune âge à l’image. Elle n’a pas besoin de ressembler comme deux gouttes d’eau à Marilou, mais il faut pouvoir croire à leur lien mère-fille. On souhaite donc une certaine proximité physique, sans chercher une ressemblance exacte. Je cherche surtout un visage expressif, une petite fille joviale et rayonnante, à l’aise et réceptive aux indications, avec qui je pourrai travailler la scène naturellement. L’action est très simple : faire semblant de dormir, puis ouvrir les yeux au moment demandé. Sa capacité à rester détendue, à écouter et à reproduire cette petite action sera plus importante que son expérience devant la caméra.
