Description:

Searching for child and teen actors for "A Winter Shared" Romantic Drama film. Details below. ONLY DC, VA, AND LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: During a winter storm in the mountains, two families arrive at the same remote cabin-both holding legitimate reservations, both suddenly stranded by weather, distance, and circumstance. With no immediate solution and children to protect, Atlas and Andy make the only reasonable choice: share the space for the night. What begins as an uncomfortable logistical problem slowly becomes something gentler. Over soup, card games, quiet hallway conversations, and the steady crackle of a fire, walls soften. Children form unexpected alliances. Adults rediscover ease, humor, and the fragile possibility of connection after loss. A Winter Shared is a tender, one-night story about grief, boundaries, chosen family, and the strange intimacy that can grow when people are forced to slow down and sit with one another. Rate: $25 honorarium per role. Reel provided. In-person premiere. Residuals and credit provided. Meals provided. Additional info: The project is scheduled to start in March or April 2026. Shoot days 4 days over 1.5 months in Northern Virginia. Rehearsals 3-5 days in Northern Virginia. In-person or digital callback on February 18th. When applying, please send a self-tape with availability, experience, reel, or resumé by February 8th. Please mention the characters you have an interest in.
