about the project

Casting English-speaking actresses for a short film (genre: mix of drama, psychological thriller, and body horror).

Logline: the short talks about two art students and the project that will gruesomely change their lives. Victor and Lisa are building a life-sized terrarium in Lisa’studio, where she will stay for two weeks. Their project is a controversial experiment: they want to explore how Lisa will change, develop, or deteriorate during her time inside the terrarium. However, even with this extreme concept, the project turns out to be more meaningful than Victor and Lisa could have ever anticipated.

Shooting in Leiden in April- May 2025.

We offer the opportunity to play a fun role in a unique film project. The project started as a student film but quickly evolved into a semi-professional production with a passionate, motivated, and experienced crew. For the entire crew, this is a passion project; therefore, the budget is fully allocated to the production of the film, allowing everyone to add something valuable to their portfolio and resume.


Looking to fill the following roles:

Role: Marie
f, 18-25, English-speaking (native or very fluent)
Marie is an art student in the class of Lisa and Victor. The art student is smart but lazy, skillfully recycling old work and dressing it up with elaborate socio-political explanations. She always has a clever answer, making it hard for the teacher to call her out. This role requires a mix of humor, charm, and quick thinking.
