rest in west (a working title) is a student short film being produced for ryerson university’s second year film studies program. it is a film about two young siblings that have run away from home and now have to deal with uncertainties of their future.

the two young actors we are casting are as follows:

florence is a 8-10 year old girl who has been taken on this adventure by her older brother. this is a speaking role but a lot of what needs to be conveyed about this character must be done so through facial/body language.

stanley is a 10-12 year old boy who has taken it upon himself to care for his younger sister. this too is a speaking role, his character requires a lot of facial/body language.
