4 roles
LEAD ROLE. A music producer struggling to find her voice is forced to balance artistic ambition with the monotony of office life. Intelligent, creative and quietly resilient, she gradually finds herself pulled into a world where every mundane detail begins to carry unsettling implications. Neutral North American English.
SUPPORTING ROLE. British accent required. Sammy's right-hand man. Charismatic, impeccably dressed, and effortlessly manipulative. A relentless womanizer who enjoys pushing boundaries simply because he can. His confidence is absolute, his charm weaponized, and beneath his polished corporate persona lies something profoundly inhuman.
SUPPORTING ROLE. Parisian French accent preferred. Arthur's inseparable counterpart. Sharp-tongued, blunt and unapologetically direct, Remy has little patience for pretense. Where Arthur seduces with charisma, Remy commands through confidence and brutal honesty.
SUPPORTING ROLE. Founder and CEO of a rapidly growing video surveillance company. Magnetic, articulate and impossible to read. Sammy rarely raises his voice, preferring calculated words and measured silence. Every interaction feels deliberate, as though he's always several moves ahead of everyone else.
