Leading actress (f/d) as "Mira" for the student short film "Perception Game"

Perception Game is a psychological short film psychodrama with a twist ending that explores the themes of trauma, manipulation and subjective perception.

The focus is on Mira, a young woman who tries to reconstruct repressed memories after a tragic accident. As therapeutic sessions and fragmented flashbacks reveal her past, the boundaries between reality, memory and imagination become increasingly blurred.

The film deliberately plays with perspectives, uncertainty and gaslighting. Both at character level and in the staging. The aim is to draw the audience emotionally into Mira's world of perception and leave them in doubt as to what is true until the end.

📍 Shooting location: Rhine-Main area (Wiesbaden, Mainz, Frankfurt)
📅 Shooting period: 29.05.2026 - 05.06.2026

Mira (25) appears exhausted and internally scarred, as if she has experienced too much. She is highly sensitive and analytical, fighting desperately to keep control of herself. Plagued by flashbacks and panic attacks, she vacillates between fragility, fear and explosive anger. An intense character with a wide emotional range.

• Strong emotional expressiveness

• Intense play between vulnerability and strength

• Convincing portrayal of fear, anger, doubt and breakdown

• Camera experience an advantage, but not a must
