Actress (f/d) with a PR-ready toothpaste smile for a student short film
For our short film, we are looking for an actress over 40 with a professional, media-effective smile for the role of Frau Becker.
The film is about five young filmmakers who want to submit their ideas to FutureFilmförderung. But then they find out: Only one idea will be funded. The decision is made by Ms. Becker, a woman who maintains a façade that could hardly be further from her true self. She tries to speak as correctly and inclusively as possible, but it quickly becomes clear that this is not out of conviction, but for selfish motives. In the end, she chooses the idea that causes the least offense. The most "normal". Everything that is strange, new or bold is discarded. Because: film is a business, and customers don't buy anything unfamiliar.
The short film aims to show how much the German funding system is characterized by fear of the new. Hardly any new and innovative stories are produced and funded in Germany. We want to change that!
Important information:
This is a no-budget project. Unfortunately, we cannot cover any fees or travel costs. We are hoping for committed actors who want to support our message and make a statement together with us. Of course, the film can later be used for showreels. We will also submit it to national and international festivals.
Shooting date:
June 14 and 15 in Cologne.
We look forward to your support and an inspiring collaboration!

Optically, we are looking for an actress who has similarities to Meryl Streep in Don't Look Up or Hillary Clinton in her charisma and/or appearance.
A put-on, professional smile, elegant clothes, an outer facade and a second face behind it.
