Character Breakdowns:

Sumaiya : Female, 14 years old, South Indian. (Looking for someone 18 years or older who can pass for this age) A beautiful young girl watches her mother handling a client next door through a hole in the wall. She wants to have a better life for herself, so that one day she can live a life different than her mother did. In the midst of trying to flee out, she gets her period.

Nazma: Female, early 30s, South Indian. A woman who was once full of life, but has had the life and beauty sucked out of her at an early age. Nazma has a nudity scene in the film. Although the shot list may not actually call for nudity(ex. A closeup shoulder shot, etc) there may be at any time a need for nudity for the scene.

Anik: Male, 60s, South Indian. Includes a nudity scene. A lustful man who often visits the brothel to escape from reality and to relax. He kisses Nazma, smokes a (herbal) cigarette, and hands her cash.
