Omschrijving
WHEN THE PARTY'S OVER
Short Film — Dark Comedy / Psychological Drama
CASTING CALL — COLIN — Male, 18–22

THE CHARACTER
Colin is a 20 year old freshman. He is not the popular kid. He never was. He spent most of his life with one person — his best friend Derek. They studied together, played hockey together.
Colin lost Derek to drugs.
Colin thinks he is the funniest person in any room. But he knows he is the loneliest.

THE SCENES
COMEDY — Colin spends the night at a party trying to fit in with strangers. He gets rejected at the front door. He joins a beer pong game and loses spectacularly. He gets high with a group of stoners and says completely the wrong thing. Every attempt to connect fails in a different and embarrassing way. This has to be genuinely funny. The actor needs to be comfortable with physical comedy, awkward silences and speaking directly to camera like it is the only friend he has.
EMOTIONAL — Colin ends up alone in an empty room and comes face to face with a hallucination of Derek. They talk. It is the conversation Colin has been running from all night. The scene cuts between the present and a flashback — the last moment Colin ever saw Derek. Derek at his front door, begging for help, asking for money. And Colin on the other side, unable to open it, knowing he cannot save his friend. The actor needs to be completely present, completely honest and able to carry both grief and guilt at the same time.
