About the Job
Male | 40s | Argentine
A rugged, weathered fisherman and estranged father. Formerly charismatic, now visibly worn down by life and bad decisions. Speaks both Spanish and English, often switching between them. Blunt, passionate, and deeply flawed — a mix of rough masculinity, street wisdom, and occasional vulnerability. Must have authentic Argentine accent and Spanish fluency. Ideal actor should convey internal conflict, dark humor, and the weight of past regrets, while still retaining a thread of paternal warmth.
Must be comfortable with:
Handling fishing gear and boat work
Physically demanding scenes (water, boating, swimming)
Performing in bilingual dialogue (Spanish/English)
Implying drug use and morally gray behavior
