about the project

For our short movie ”Into the Noise”, we’re looking for a young male lead. 

About the movie:
”Into the Noise” is the story of encounter between Lily, a lively corporate AI coder, and Noah, a dedicated anarchist and a lover of old-school analogue technology. Both full of hopes and dreams of changing the world, they meet in a DIY-synth shop and quickly find common ground in their passion for noise music. The two must navigate a short-lived yet intense romantic connection which raise questions about intimacy, politics and technological progress.

Filming period: 1-2 weeks, beginning of 2024 (dates to be fixed), in Basel, Switzerland;

Paid role.


Looking to fill the following roles:
role 1 | actors | male
playing age: 20 - 26
role languages: English
ROLE: NOAH
m, 20s, with long hair, slightly androgynous appearance, any ethnicity. Must speak good English (US, Canadian, South American or Australian accent – the character comes to Europe from overseas).

About the character:
Noah is secretive and calm, embodying the aura of "mysterious poet". He takes pleasure in forging his own principles and rules about everything. He's an analogue technology geek, reluctant to embrace the world of the digital. A dedicated anarchist, he hates all kinds of centralised structures: he found his way into noise music and synth-making as a form of his protest against big companies of the music industry. He finds beauty in closed, self-sustaining electrical systems as an extension of his entire worldview: a closed system himself, he's unlikely to establish a truly intimate connection very easily. He denies social media and rarely uses his phone. For all his tranquil facade, a pinch of sadness never leaves his face. Noah's favourite music track is John Cage's 4'33".

NB: The role involves a mild erotic scene, which will be coordinated by a professional intimacy coordinator.
Please note, there may be some nudity/intimacy in this role. For more on what this means, please see here.
