Toronto
Role description

A social worker who supports people in recovery as they navigate addiction, relapse, and the daily challenges of rebuilding their lives. Thoughtful and reserved, Shea prefers structure, routine, and predictability, yet his work continually places him in situations that are anything but orderly. Uncomfortable in social settings and often unsure of how to connect with others, Shea observes more than he participates. He possesses a quiet empathy and deep commitment to helping people, but struggles with his own sense of isolation and emotional distance. As he guides others through their vulnerabilities, he is forced to confront the barriers he has built around himself.

Toronto
Role description

An unconventional psychotherapist who operates a neurofeedback practice out of her living room. Warm, patient, and quietly enigmatic, Dr. Carter cultivates an atmosphere of comfort and trust that immediately puts her clients at ease. Her methods exist somewhere between science and intuition, and she speaks with the confidence of someone who has spent decades listening to people search for answers. Though her practice lacks the polish of a traditional clinic, Dr. Carter firmly believes in the treatment she provides—or at least in the relief, hope, and success it has brought to those who seek her help. Beneath her reassuring demeanor lies a woman whose certainty may be more complicated than it appears, leaving others to wonder whether her gift lies in the technology itself or simply in her ability to make people feel seen. Character Traits: Compassionate, perceptive, unconventional, calming, intelligent, enigmatic, quietly confident. Performance Notes: Seeking an actor who can balance warmth with ambiguity. Dr. Carter should feel genuinely caring and trustworthy while retaining an understated mystery that leaves room for interpretation. Strong listening skills and a natural, grounded presence are essential.

Role description

Male | 30–35 | Chinese / Chinese American. A world-renowned concert pianist who has just become the first Asian American to win one of the biggest piano prizes in the world. On the surface, Daniel has everything: a beautiful home, a wife who adores him, a proud family, and the exact career he dreamed of as a child. Underneath, on this single night, something quietly opens up in him. He begins to see the boy he used to be, and the gap between that boy and the polished, public man he has become. Daniel does not speak a single word in the film. His entire performance lives in his face, his hands, and his stillness. We see him hold the weight of a celebration he can't fully feel, the warmth of a family who adores him, and the dawning realization of a life he never paused to look at. He is not unhappy. He is not in crisis. He is simply, for the first time, reflecting. Skills: Piano performance required (or strong piano doubling capability). Must carry the film with subtle, internalized emotional work. Comfortably perform same-sex romantic and intimacy scenes with the actor playing Alex (kissing, physical closeness, sharing a bed; tastefully shot, intimacy coordinator on set).
