Jessica/Mom

In The Water

Short Film 175 Woman 40 - 55 Non Union Principal 09/05/2026 Los Angeles

About the Job

Jessica is composed, intelligent, and quietly magnetic. On the surface, she is warm, capable, and in control, but beneath that lies a tightly contained vulnerability that leads to a deep aversion to wildness, or anything that compromises her controlled composition. In her marriage, she balances gratitude with resentment, while with her daughters, she is loving yet inconsistent. She wants to provide the stability for Margot that she could not provide Tori, but Tori’s and Margot’s liberated personalities challenge what love and stability really mean. This role calls for an actor who can embody restraint and depth, conveying inner conflict through nuance, physicality, and moments of quiet unraveling. The actor must be comfortable filming under water.
