Storyline
TRANSMUTATION is a dark, contained thriller in which a meticulously staged jewelry heist meant for insurance fraud spirals out of control, forcing a ruthless businessman to confront the cost of manipulation, fear, and the fatal illusion that he controls everything—where reaching for something higher comes at a price paid in blood.
Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Jimmy | Male 22 - 28 Years old |
Description Jimmy, (Black) in his early twenties, works as a store employee. Within the hierarchy of the workplace, he is often treated as a scapegoat, bearing the brunt of blame and frustration. Seen as the weakest link, Jimmy stands out not due to malicious intent or incompetence, but because of his vulnerability and lack of experience. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | TRIXIE (Late 40s) | Male 43 - 50 Years old |
Description Trans woman. Survivor. In transformation. Caucasian IRISH ACCENT PREFERRED Trixie is amid becoming—she is neither who she was nor fully who she wants to be. Participating in the heist to fund her gender-affirming surgery, she carries deep vulnerability beneath hardened resolve. Her internal conflict mirrors the film’s core idea of evolution: growth demands risk, but risk demands sacrifice. Trixie is the most morally grounded character, even as she participates in crime. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | PINKY (Late 60s) | Male 60 - 70 Years old |
Description Career criminal. Philosopher of survival. Caucasian IRISH ACCENT PREFERREDPinky is sharp, cynical, and unsettlingly calm. He rationalizes crime through crude evolutionary metaphors, believing survival justifies all behavior. To him, morality is a luxury for those who can afford it. He mentors Trixie in his own warped way, blurring the line between care and exploitation. Pinky represents adaptation without empathy—evolution stripped of conscience. | ||
