This is an audition notice for Sunday the 12th from 11am to 3pm and Monday the 13th from 6pm to 9pm. 
Location: 3981 North Business Center Drive, Tucson, AZ 
Auditions will be held in the back production office space. 

Forge Entertainment Inc. is casting for a short piece from a feature film in search of funding. We will be shooting 10 pages from the feature length script. This film is a gritty dramatic thriller. We are seeking men and woman who can speak Russian, although NOT ALL characters will be speaking Russian. 

This is a story of revenge. Every year human trafficking, as an organized crime, is approximated to generate 32 billion dollars in revenue. The industrialized countries are the main source of slaves or labor servants approximated at 15.5 million victims. Individuals under the age 18, make up half of the total number of humans being trafficked. They are brought to cities across America to work in brothels as prostitutes. 
Young Lana has escaped, but she has only left one hell to be lost in another. Forced to grow up and find her way on the cold and mean street, she grows strong. And now she’s reaping revenge on those whom she deems evil. Be the criminals who rape and murder or the police who turn a blind eye. Now that she is free, the blood will spill. 

Actors will be expected to cold read from selected scenes from the film. 
The characters we are seeking are, 

Vatslav – Mid 30s Russian crime goon – Speaks Russian 

Dmitriy – Mid 30s Russian crime goon – Speaks Russian 

Lana – Young, 18 to early 20s - Russian prostitute – Speaks Russian 
She is strong willed. Scared but very brave. Fighting her way out of captivity. 

Verena – Very young, needs to look 15 or younger. Asking that actress be 18 or over, due 
to possible long shooting days and graphic content. 
She was taken from Russia and smuggled over to America to become a prostitute. Innocent and scared. 

Terrance Ledbetter – Mid 40s, business man. – American 
He is a sleazy type. Preys on young women. 

We are also seeking men 30s to 50s to play patrons at an underground brothel. 
We are also seeking women of various ages to play prostitutes that have been brought over illegally to work in the brothel. 

Some partial nudity may be required.
