Throughout the film, the scenes are directed by the writer who is physically present as a third person.

What do we offer?
We are looking for an actor who wants to play the lead role, the lead role is an older version of the character of Jonathan and is therefore named after the writer, the writer is actively present in all scenes. He introduces these and watches them as a third character, he is the leading thread in the story.

Writer (25 - 40 years)
The author is Jonathan, ten years after the events with Madelijn. He is thoughtful and introverted, with a clear need to understand his past by putting it on paper. Although he presents himself as a detached and neutral narrator, his version of the story remains colored by his own memories and emotions. He avoids direct self-reflection, which indicates that he still has trouble fully facing his mistakes. As a person he seems calm and analytical, but his need to maintain control over how the story is told betrays his inner insecurity and unprocessed past.
