"The Sins of Our Father" - Main Character's Younger Selves
We are casting the younger versions of the three siblings for flashback scenes. Please send headshot to: thesinsofourfatherfilm@gmail.com The Sins of Our Father dissects the crumbling legacy of the Montgomery family in a narrative that blends gritty family drama with surreal, lo-fi sci-fi. The film unfolds in an exploration of the fallouts with Clive's three children: Maddie, the eldest, paralyzed by the fear of inheriting her father’s toxicity; Leland, a debt-ridden filmmaker; and Julian, a recluse who has signed a "deal with the devil" by accepting tuition sponsorship from Clive’s ruthless rival, Vance. The plan shatters when Clive misuses the device. As the siblings uncover the truth, their own demons collide with external threats. In a chaotic climax that blurs the line between memory and reality, the siblings must weaponize the device to escape. Ultimately, Clive makes the only selfless choice of his life, resulting in his children finally being free.
