Greater Philadelphia Film Office
This is a class short film project about a couple’s relationship deteriorating following a family vacation invitation. After Nick invites Jesse to his family’s second house, Nick begins to pressure her to change who she is to please his parents.
Actors won’t be paid but will be fed on set and at any in-person rehearsals, and will be given screen credit.
The shoot will take a place in and around a townhome in West Philly near Drexel campus on a full day on 10/28. We will also be looking to do one zoom rehearsal and one in person rehearsal which we can coordinate together.
