Context
After working several years as a creative for a number of companies and co-directing a TV series, it felt like the right time to write and direct my own creation. This passion project has been a labour of love, made with the help of Narrativ Nation, a production company based in Brussels along with a truly dedicated cast and crew. After a successful festival circuit, the film was acquired by Canal+ for TV and online streaming.

Synopsis
Dan always wanted to be an actor, but instead of achieving his dreams, he ends up a chromakey technician on movie sets. Covered in a bright green suit from head to toe, he is stuck in a rut until he gets offered an audition and the possibility to step into the limelight. The opportunity is potentially life-changing, and this absolutely terrifies him.
Dan is played by Alexander Arnold from Skins, Yesterday and Pistols.
