SEEKING:
DU’AA – [BlACK, MUSLIM, MID-LATE 20’s] A woman who deals with severe panic attacks. She’s passive-aggressive, timid, and usually submissive. When times get tough for her, she’s extremely imaginative and uses her imagination to soothe her nerves.

Shoots 3 days – $200/day – Shooting May 22-28 tentatively

SARAH – [BLACK, MUSLIM, EARLY 20’s] A soon to be bride and the compassionate yet vain younger sister of Du’aa. Although sweet, she is a bit insensitive and oblivious to her bridesmaids torment of Du’aa.

HANA – [MUSLIM, EARLY 20’s] The fiery and confrontational Bridesmaid of Sarah. She might play nice in front of her beloved soon to be married friend, but she’s a true mean girl to Du’aa. Although fashion forward, and confident, she’ll stop at nothing to ridicule and gaslight Du’aa.
[ANY RACE/ETHNICITY]
Shoots 2 days – $150/day – Shooting May 22-28 tentatively

FARAH – [MUSLIM, EARLY 20’s] the second bridesmaid of Sarah. Alongside Hana, she is intimidating, sarcastic, and extremely insensitive when it comes to Du’aa. She might pretend like she has it all together but underneath her strong personality is a tacky wanna-be.
