short film - 'in good hands'


(auto-translated from Dutch Dutch)

Wanted: two female lead roles (18-26)
Type: short fiction film / Psychological drama
Length: approx. 10 minutes
December 1 to 4
all-female crew

In Good Hands confronts the viewer with a painful ethical dilemma: how long do you continue to show understanding for a friend who crosses your boundaries due to past traumas, and when do you choose yourself?

We follow Hannah and Jasmijn in the morning after a night out. Jasmijn can't remember anything, and Hannah is acting suspiciously. Throughout the morning, Jasmijn gradually unravels more of what happened that evening. It turns out that Hannah drugged her because she thought Jasmijn would loosen up and people would like her more. This idea stems from Hannah's fear of abandonment.

From that moment on, we follow the film from Hannah's perspective. We feel her panic about losing Jasmijn, but also Jasmijn's decision to choose herself and draw a line. Jasmijn kicks her out, leaving Hannah alone in the outside world and confronting her greatest fear.

Description
1. JASMINE (Main role) female
* Age: 18-26
Character & Profile: Jasmijn is calm, natural, and headstrong. She is the sensible one, but has let herself be walked all over for too long. When she wakes up with a blackout and a bruise, she demands the truth. Her attitude shifts from confused to icy calm, angry, and disappointed when she discovers the betrayal.
What we are looking for in an actor: Someone who can play with restraint and vulnerability, but can also convincingly portray the shift to powerful self-care and disappointment.

2. HANNAH (Main role) woman
* Age: 18 to 26
Character & Profile: Hannah is not a villain, but someone who acts out of a blind, panicked fear of losing the only person with whom she feels safe. She is restless, alert, constantly seeks validation, and desperately tries to maintain control by lying and gaslighting when her secrets threaten to come out.
What we are looking for in an actor: Someone who can show immense vulnerability, subtly convey physical unrest (fidgeting, shooting glances), and add depth to a character who makes wrong choices out of a pure survival instinct.
