Hi All,

Premise 

Ripples run across the surface of the lake. A blanket of fog has descended, shrouding the

far side of the water in mist. We hear a disturbance in the lake’s surface out of our line of

sight. A man staggers into view. He is stranded. Alone. The boat he came from has sunk;

we do not see it. He searches for answers; in the water, in the woodland, in the hills. He

finds none.

Character Profiles 

Daiva, aged 32, has a deep passion for poetry which represents all his life. He can be

described as a passionate and introverted person. He only surrounds himself with people

he finds intellectually stimulating. He has no relationship with his parents. His deepest

fear is losing his sister Eleanor, who is the most important person in his life. Daiva finds

refuge in poetry and Chopin. He shares this passion with his sister. Chopin's music is

simplicity and its harmonies gives him a fragile feeling. As a poet, he has a good

relationship with words, despite this, he is not able to express himself to others, and does

not seem to communicate much. However, he seems to be scarred by something

happened in the past, something that really changed him.

* Although the character is written here as a male, we are open to a female taking on the role if, in auditions, an actor portrays themselves in a way that surprises us/makes us reconsider. 

Eleanor, aged 29, is tall and appears incredibly attractive. She works as switchboard

operator for a company in Prague. Eleanor can be described as an intelligent and

extroverted personality, but she is not able to show her true self. She spends her time

reading and playing the piano. She doesn't have many acquaintances. Like the brother,

Eleanor does not have any relationship with her parents; both of them have this dark side

in common. Eleanor seems to be afflicted by an emptiness which can be described as a

lack of affections. The only person in which she finds a refuge is Daiva.

* And the same applies for the role of Eleanor. 

We are holding auditions on the 5th of March to get ready to film late march. We are holding the auditions in the Atrium in Cardiff in room 202. If you require any more information please email us on lacrimasproductions@gmail.com.
