about the project

In January 2025, we are starting our next short film "Doors", an ultra-short project of around 1 minute. This film will keep you on the edge of your seat: What is happening, and what are we really watching? The story follows a young woman fleeing from something unknown—or maybe from herself. Is it a thriller, horror, comedy, or science fiction? Doors plays with reality and promises to be a visual spectacle, shot on a beautiful location near Apeldoorn.

The film features the same Director of Photography (D.O.P.) as "Una Volta" (which screened at FilmQuest and Imagine Film Festival Amsterdam) and an SFX specialist who has worked on major American productions, including those from Sony and Marvel.

Shooting Location: Apeldoorn
Shooting dates: 1 weekday in mid-January 2025. Exact date to be discussed.

Unpaid roles but on offer are:
Reimbursement for travel expenses and catering on set.
Professional footage for your portfolio/showreel and IMDB credits
Opportunity to gain more experience as an actor on set.
A unique experience with a fun and enthusiastic cast & crew.


Looking to fill the following roles:
role 1 | actors | female
playing age: 21 - 35
role languages: English
LEAD ROLE: Jessie
f, 21-35, English speaker, must be able to run down a staircase.
Description: Jessie is a young woman fleeing through an old, wooden house. This role is challenging because it relies entirely on expression and physical presence; you will act without dialogue but must convey strong emotions through facial expressions and body language. There will be close-up shots emphasizing your expressions, tense breathing etc.

role 2 | actors | male
playing age: 21 - 35
role languages: English
SUPPORTING ROLE: Joey
m, 21-35, speaking fluent English
Description: Joey is Jessie’s boyfriend—or at least, he seems to be. This role requires fluent English, preferably with a native accent.
