Call for Submissions – Film, non-union

by QDF

 I AM THE WIND – Audition

Looking for actresses / actrices recherchées French or english speaking, italian speaking is a +

 

Langues française ou anglaise, italien un plus

 

Production: I Am The Wind (Feature Film)
Location: Montreal
Employer: Wind Production
Duration: We gonna be shooting a Pilot, starts September 1
(Non-ACTRA artist contracts)
Payment is on a lo/no/deferred basis.

 

Director: Andrea Cairoli. I Am The Wind (Pilot)

An Italian director, Andrea Cairoli, has arrived in Montreal with the purpose of shooting a pilot for a feature film, I Am The Wind.

It is essential that the first part of his production is created with as much freedom and spontaneity as possible. As of now, this production is a co-production between Italy and a Montreal based production company Wind. However, Andrea is funding this first part of production out of his pocket. The Italian film industry is reluctant to embrace the independent spirit of low-budget, on-the-fly film making.

 

This project stands out to me because it is something more than just cranking out another film. With this month of shooting, Andrea hopes to illustrate to Italian producers and execs that independent film making is capable of creating a beautiful film, even more so than the ultra-structured high budget industry productions.

 

This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of film making that doesn’t often happen. The film tells a complex intertwining story of two childhood friends, Martino and Lorenzo. Martino leaves Lorenzo behind in Italy to reunite with his girlfriend, who had relocated to Connecticut. Upon his arrival, Martino learns his girlfriend has moved on from him and he later settles in the city of Montreal. There are approximately 30 scenes to shoot in this North American portion.
