The movie is described as a gritty, yet magical story of a young girl named Rain, who leaves her idyllic and simple home on Ragged Island for the big city of Nassau to connect with her estranged mother.
Rain’s sense of self is shaken by the assaulting reality of her mother’s inner city world, and so she must hold to her deepest spiritual ground and source her power from within in order to steer the true course of her life.
The casting call is for the following roles:
* Rain: Must look between 14 and 16 years old. Brown skinned, slim, athletic, doesn’t wear make up, is very natural, could be considered plain, has a real look of innocence about her.
* Magdaline: Must look between 15 and 16. Bi-racial, very pretty, confident, street smart, rebellious, lots of attitude.
* Keva: Must look between 15 and 16. Brown skinned, slim, athletic, prissy, wears make up, appears quite mature for her age, very image-conscious and well presented.
Auditions will be held 3pm to 8prn on Sunday, June 25 at the National Dance School of the Bahama on Fifth Terrace, one block East of Roberts Furniture Store.
