Hey there, future stars and indie icons!
We’re rolling out the red carpet for YOU to join the cast of Never Say ‘Good Luck’ to a Sailor— a quirky, relatable dramedy about Darya, a 25-year-old film grad whose life is a chaotic blend of latte art, podcast rants, and chasing overfed cats. Can she ditch her comfort zone and dive into the cutthroat world of filmmaking, or will she stay adrift in the sea of side hustles?

We’re shooting in The Hague this December (dates flexible; we’re chill like that), and we’re on the lookout for some top-tier vibes to bring our characters to life. Let’s break it down for ya:

What do we offer?
We’re offering you delicious food to fuel your talent, covered travel costs, and the unforgettable experience of being part of a cool student film—because every great story starts somewhere!

Description
DARYA (Protagonist)
- Age: 25 (or looks it—vibes matter the most!).
- Description: Clumsy, creative, and *low-key* spiraling in the most relatable way. Darya’s a film grad, too scared to risk it all for her dream but also too stubborn to let it die. Think artsy outfits, bold energy, and an existential crisis hidden under a killer smirk.
- Bonus Points: You’re a foreigner living in the Netherlands and get the "struggling expat" life.
- Extra Bonus Points: Ideally, Darya's character has red/orange hair.

JOEP (Side Character)
- Age: 24 (ish, who’s counting?).
- Description: Chill incarnate. A Fine Arts drop-out turned part-time barista, part-time bartender, full-time *Zen master*. Joep is the friend who tells you to breathe and not in an annoying way. Lives for simplicity and knows how to make the best oat milk cappuccino in the game.
- Must-Have: Dutch vibes—like, you can cycle in the rain *and* hold a coffee in one hand.

SILVIA (Side Character)
- Age: Older than Darya (but *timeless* energy is key).
- Description: Tarot-reading queen with a closet full of designer boho looks and a *low-key* side hustle in mystical vibes. Think “spiritual guide” meets polished hustler. She’ll pull a card and maybe scam you, but you’ll feel *better* about it. Rings, bracelets, and a crystal or two? *Mandatory.*
- You’re perfect if: people are already asking you for life advice, and you’re charging them in incense.

MOOS EUS + BEAU (Side Characters)
- Age: 20s (young, free, and full of “why not?” energy).
- Description: Two adventurous bros who ditched their engineering degrees for a life on the open sea. By day, they’re sailors; by night, they’re The Other Half, a two-man band that plays whatever, wherever. Moos Eus and Beau are BFF goals, with guitar strings and a sailboat to prove it.
- You’re perfect if: you’ve got bromance energy.
