CURRENTLY CASTING . . .
THERAPIST // 30's-50's // female: The lead's therapist. Strong presence - soulful, nurturing, patient and a little hard on the edges.
CRAIG // late 30's-early 40's // caucasion male: An old flame. Rusticly handsome, very cavalier and wears a smug look on his face. Because of a tight shot between him and lead actress, it's important he has large, brown almond-shaped eyes.
DAVE // late 20's-early 30's // male: The lead's older brother. Approachable, handsome, yet modest and shy. Couldn't care less about your sob story. Does not need to look like lead actress - they can even be adopted siblings.
DAVE (young) // age 11 // male: Goofy kid; a bratty monkey.
SAMANTHA (young) // 8 // female: Sweet kid; looks up to her brother.
MEN // 20's-40's: Collecting still shots of men of all types for montage scenes.

Every now and again, a political pundit or an out-spoken politican will mention the 1953 Iranian coup d'etat - the CIA-backed oil-driven scheme that, 26 years later, eventually overthrew the Shah of Iran. In my attempt to wrap my head around a monarchy in the 1960's that embraced Western civilazation and sexy female pop stars to a military government that has outlawed Googoosh (Iran's "Madonna" if you will) from performing and selling records, I'm telling a story in the format of a full-length movie that will hopefully clear this picture up for Americans, like myself, who have had the wrong idea about Iran for far too long.
