Norman short film looking for actors and actresses

Norman is a psychological drama and character-driven 5 minute short film exploring the tension between the desire for belonging and the isolating nature of personal pride. The story follows Norman, a 21-year-old social outcast who longs for human connection but finds himself retreating into a fantasy of self-importance and delusion. As his emotional struggle deepens, his grip on reality begins to blur retreating into his ideal fantasy world. Each scene in the film reflects Normans state of mind as it slowly moves from a lively atmospheric bar to the growing chaos of his room

Scenes: Bar, bedroom (various states), bus station, park

Bus Girl (Female, 20–25)
A grounded, everyday young woman. She represents another fleeting chance at connection for Norman, but is weirded out by him and calls him a creep.
Appearance: Casual style, low-rise jeans, converse, long-sleeve top
Scenes: Bus station (single moment of interaction), reappears in later fantasy scenes (park)
