The Red Bill
Location: New York City
Type: Film
Casting for ‘The Red Bill’ short film. “A ten dollar bill with a red balloon drawn on it passes through the hands of four financially desperate characters. When none of them are able to hold onto it long enough for it to be spent, it finds a home with a much less financially desperate recipient.”
This 7-10 minute narrative encapsulates the immense wealth inequality in America, especially in the bustling streets of NYC. Rehearsals will be in the first two weeks of January and will be shooting in late January – into February.
Once finalized it will have a guaranteed placement in the CUNY film festival, and will submitted to other film festivals in NYC. If any of these rolls seem like a fit for you or someone that you represent or know, please reach out.
