Mikihiro Nakamoto
Casting call for older Indonesian/Asian woman
An older female Indonesian (of other Southeast-Asian origin is fine as well!) between the ages of 37-65.
No prior acting experiences required however they're welcome. In case you're this is your first acting role, we will do our best to guide you and work together!
You will play the role of the immigrant mother "Eve". You build up the family-owned flower shop with your husband "Robert" and have two daughters in a small town in the Netherlands. You dreamed of being a singer/dancer when you were in your 20s but quickly gave up that dream to marry Robert. You are hard-working and busy with the flower shop. While your daughters may have a difficult relationship with their dad, you try to be the soft spot and provide emotional support (most importantly encourage Claire to follow her passion).
You're going to play the immigrant dad "Robert", having a traumatic childhood in your home country and starting over by zero in a small town in the Netherlands. You know how much you sacrificed in your life to provide for your family so security is one of your highest priority. You fear for your oldest daughter "Claire" to lose that security you planned out for her due to your past trauma.
Emotions/scenes you're going to cover are resentment, stubbornness, being strict and authoritative, having the last word and surpressing your emotions to lead as the head of the family.
