3 roles

JuliaFemale20-39 y.o.All ethnicities

A mid-twenties woman caught in an internal struggle surrounding her recent engagement. Stuck between her love for her fiancé and her instinct to overthink and spiral. Growing up and watching her parents’ unhealthy marriage, and the pain it caused her mother, Julia wants to believe in her fiancé and the love he has for her, but she finds herself still worried that it isn't enough. A woman who wants to be carefree and happy but is constantly held back by her overthinking and worried mind.

MargaretFemale20-39 y.o.All ethnicities

A young mother (also in her mid-twenties) who strives to keep her family together despite the obstacles she faces. She has a five year old daughter (Julia) and an absent yet controlling husband. Living decades in the past, she deals with different expectations of what being a woman and a wife means, and the pressures that come with it. She loves Julia (both past and present) with all her heart and is a warm and caring mother despite her hardships.

StevenMale20-39 y.o.All ethnicities

A man in his mid-twenties, engaged to Julia, and acts as her complete opposite. Upfront with his affection and dedication to Julia, his bold carefree style of loving contrasts Julia’s more quiet and pragmatic sensibilities. He knows Julia is going through a hard time and is there for her, whatever she needs; including if she needs to time travel in order to talk to her mother.
