Job description

As part of a 2nd semester project in film production, I would like to shoot a 5-7 minute short film that takes place in a bookstore, an apartment and a city library.

It is a humorous, entertaining short film (approx.5-7 min), which is to be realized in two days of shooting as a student project. We are also casting the role of the bookseller (40-50 years), the businessman as the devil (40-50 years) and the granddaughter (10-12 years).

If you have acting talent and experience in film productions, we would be very pleased to receive your application, including acting and audio samples and/or pictures.

Role/requirement profile

We are looking for a talented actress to play the smart grandma. She is a grandmother who wants a public library, regularly buys books for her granddaughter from the bookseller with her hard-saved money and then receives a visit from a businessman who wants her soul in exchange for the most beautiful library in town.Grandma agrees to the deal if the devil, disguised as a businessman, solves three tasks. The last task requires him to name the last time he called someone he loves: As he cannot answer these questions, the businessman loses the deal.
At the end of the movie, we see the happy grandma in the beautiful city library, borrowing books with her granddaughter and triumphantly meeting the businessman as a librarian.
