You see, everyone involved in this project understands it and feels it.

Gloria is the element that balances and guides the main character; she is symbiotically connected with Katherine. For these reasons it was the hardest actress to cast.

After a few selections into a short list I decided that Cia Allan, would be the perfect fit for the role. Transmitting a sense of security but simultaneous of fragile and caress personality, Cia really possess the unique qualities that a mentor, like Gloria, requires.

From broken pieces...

A melody without voice; waiting for voice... Only together we can make it alive!

A message from our lead actress about what attracted her to the project. 

Devora give us her insight about A song of the Anxious.

As Katherine she will be our lead character. If you desire to know more about the characters or the project itself please have a look into the directors videos on our Youtube channel.

Max Cavenham as Dr. Andrew Collins.

To be able to explain why Max was the right choice for Collins first I need to show you Collins as envisioned by me.

Once the pages of a script – or any other story – are out there to be seen the characters lost their “authorship definition”. Each one of us will find characteristics that might be common with what others assign to that specific character or they might just be different. This opinion is not singularly related to Collins – instead I assign to my characters the power of being alive in the mind of those, in this case, watching the film.

Collins is an appreciator of life, as a professional he understands that he can help others feel those same pleasures or by taking them on a journey, discovering their own pleasures in life and enjoy them. However Katherine knows what makes her happy: singing, playing, writing… Only that Katherine cannot do it… Which road to take to reach where you want to go… Collins presents himself as a companion that Katherine will have during this journey of self-discover. Step by step Collins is showing Katherine that the places where she brings him are not as grim as she sees them.

The question is how come Max became the right person to perform this role?

I required a male figure that has a care and metropolitan look, well fit, someone who takes care of the body and as well of the mind. An appreciator of exquisite things but never forgetting his core and origins that lies under simplicity. His pleasures did transform him in a self-centred snobbish individual, they do not take the form of a whimsy instead they are meant to be shared and tasted as unique experiences that are unrepeatable…

Max has a very secure and expressive look, transmitting security and strength without failing to show compassion, care and understanding for others. By showing the script to Max, listen to his reaction by expressing himself enthusiastically and by sharing his views, it was clear that Max would really fit on Collins shoes.

Soon there will be more details about the A song of the Anxious.

Thank you see you soon,

Joao Nogueira

Director.
