Storyline
Now casting actors for a heartfelt, interview-style video series based on real patient and family experiences with a urological medical condition.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
This is a docu-style series featuring verbatim monologues and reenacted interviews drawn from deeply personal conversations with patients and parents who have lived through a rare urological condition. We are casting actors to portray these individuals on camera, seated interview-style, speaking directly to the viewer. The goal is to bring their words to life with honesty, relatability, and emotional truth.Think The Me You Can’t See, StoryCorps, or Modern Love reenactments — not scripted drama, not theatrical monologues. Just simple, real, emotional storytelling.
