“Olive House”  Feature Film Open Casting Call  

Producers:           Niv Fichman (Rhombus Media); Juan de Dios Larraín (Fabula, in association with Thin Stuff Production)    

Director, Writer:   Johnny Ma

Casting Director:  PoPing AuYeung (Live action ‘”Avatar, The Last Airbender,” ‘Shang Chi”)

Start Date:            Approximately mid-March to approximately mid-April, 2023 

Location:              Winnipeg, Canada.  

Deadline:              ASAP or by Nov. 6, 2022 

Storyline:  When her daughter falls into a temporary coma after an accident at her home in Winnipeg, Sara, an overbearing Korean mother travels from Seoul to Canada and vows to keep her daughter safe forever – by catfishing a husband for her online.

ROLE #1 [SAM] 50s -70s, male, Canadian of Korean descent. A middle-aged Korean father who has lived in Canada with his son for the past 15 years. His wife returned to Korea many years earlier, making him the opposite of a Korean “goose dad.” At first glance, Sam is a typical immigrant father, set in his ways, upholding traditional Korean ideals and values. At the same time, we see that Sam likes to try new things, and enjoys living in Canada, such as curling and eating sandwiches. We can feel that Sam wants to break out of his traditional    role of a father and find his own individual sense of identity. At his age, however, this is a challenge, until he meets Sara, who ignites a fire in his heart that he had long forgotten. LANGUAGE: Must speak fluent Korean without a Canadian accent and passable English. Most of his lines are in Korean… LEAD

ROLE #2 [MIN] 30 – 35, male, Canadian of Korean descent. Handsome, he is the perfect son-in-law that any traditional Korean mother would want her daughter to bring home. Like many good Asian sons, Min very much stands in the shadow of his father. He would like to stand up to him but doesn’t know how, as he recognizes just how much his father has always done for him.  LANGUAGE: Must speak fluent English and passable Korean. Most of his lines are in English… LEAD

ROLE #3 [MINJI] 40s – 50s, female, Canadian of Korean descent. She is Sara’s “little sister” friend. Since coming to the West, Minji has bought into the “Canadian Dream.” She married a white man and enjoys everything about the western lifestyle to the extreme. She eats, lives and laughs heartily. LANGUAGE: Must speak fluent Korean without a Canadian accent and passable English. Most of her lines are in Korean …SUPPORTING

ROLE #4 [TOTO KIM] 35 – 40, male, Korean. A new father and family man, but very much still a child himself. Toto is Sara’s older son and his way of dealing with his overbearing mother was to escape to another country. 

LANGUAGE: Must speak native Korean. ALL his lines are in Korean… SUPPORTING
