Description:
We are second year film students shooting a 10 minute short film for Paris College of Art.
Here is a brief synopsis: Dean, an old man living alone in a small apartment, relies on an old clock to dictate his mundane tasks. Eating, sleeping, even going to the bathroom happen by clocks accord, not his own. He lives a simple life, one that he claims to enjoy, and never leaves his apartment; food is delivered, and his family visits when they can. After he denies his daughter's request to get out for the night to see her and her kids, she makes a surprise visit to his house, ending in an argument that permanently uproots his routine.
Please share a reel if you have one! We will send all applicants a page of the script to read for casting. Thank you!
