About the Job
Daniel's teenage cousin. Auntie Mei's son. Permanently glued to his phone, perpetually mortified by his mother, but in one moment, he looks up and asks Daniel to play the song he used to play as a kid — the line that triggers the entire emotional movement of the film. Authentic teenage energy is essential; we are not looking for a "performed" teenager. Language: Fluent English. Skills: Naturalistic teenage performance.
