The character is a 30-year-old woman struggling to find balance after a break-up with her girlfriend. Paulette tries to come to terms with her difficult past through a wicked game that she plays with her new English friend Paul; exploring the banality of evil and trying to touch history at the sites of some of Europe's most notorious crimes.
We are not casting for any particular physical traits. Paulette is a character who is drawn to the spotlight, someone who can't sit still, who has to touch the world; a whirlwind of ideas and energy that are perhaps designed to distract from the nightmares that lurk within her.
