Lead Sonia is a 67 year old free spirit who’s spent the last 30 years or so kicking it around Boulder, Colorado after she graduated from Naropa. She’s a sex positive, free wheeling bohemian, who spent the majority of the early 70s trying to relive the 60s. Lots of acid and counter-cultural literature, Grateful Dead shows and the like, until she became a mom. That’s Sonia’s past though. Rate: ~$8,000 Project Flat
Lead Ezra is a 34 year old man who – more often than not – has something to say about, well, everything. He has an MFA in Creative Writing & PhD in Postmodern Literature from Denver University, and he’s got a whole bunch of opinions on what makes up a valuable opinion. He’s the kind of guy who’s quick to comment on why a certain book or film is low brow, and he's hellbent on being the smartest guy in the room – even if it’s at the expense of those around him. Rate: ~$8,000 Project Flat
Supporting Hayduke is a 70 year old male. Ex-hippie, Grateful Dead fan, very counter cultural. Strong comedic skills preferred. Rate: ~$1,500 Project Flat Duration: ~3 Days on Set + Rehearsal Shooting Dates: 7/12 - 7/14
