Must be able to speak Spanish and English. Must be Union. Laura is a young Colombian immigrant, who has ambitious dreams of moving to the United States pursuing her studies and independence. She is kind, optimistic and emotionally sensitive. Before the assault she carries her culture with so much pride and devotion but quickly she'll be aware of how her and her community aren't as welcome in her new to be “home”. After surviving a violent racist assault, fear begins to dictate her choices. She suppresses her language and changes her appearance to feel safe. Her journey is an internal struggle between survival and authenticity, that will lead her to stop hiding and open up.

Must be able to speak Spanish and English. Must be Union. Daniel is a Latino immigrant whose life is already established in the United States. He is a respectful and grounded classmate who tries to help her from the first moment he sees her seeking a safe place. His actions show comfort and that he genuinely cares for her, wishing her to reconnect with her roots. He is her sign that creating a Latino community is not far from her. His encouragement to report the attack will challenge Laura's survival instinct to remain invisible, as she is meant to be seen and proud of her true identity.

Michel is the typical ignorant, uneducated white man who will represent the environment Laura feels pressured to assimilate into. He has never dealt with being part of a minority or with his humanity being taken away from him, because yet again he is white guy who is a citizen of the United States of America. His casual interactions unintentionally reinforce his racist beliefs. He has no empathy and is the personification of the Republican party and typical "MAGA" rhetoric. Finally he is a representation and a metaphor for prejudice against Latinos within the U.S.

Must be Union. Dominant, entitled behaviour and overtly aggressive, Man 1 is the primary perpetrator of the racist attack. His words are intended to purely sexualize her and his actions are purely meant to physically violate Laura. He sees women as objects, as he is the physical manifestation of hostility towards migrants and becomes the sole reason for the fracture of Laura´s sense of security.

Sarcastic and complicit, Man 2 reinforces the behaviour of Man 1. He is a perpetrator of violence through his bystander approach, but his mockery and participation contribute to the fracturing of Laura's identity. This man reinforces how harassment is normalized within group dynamics as well as how men can assert their “power” over women.. His presence intensifies Laura´s fear when the assault occurs.

The realtor is a polite, talkative and seemingly welcoming character. However, he is the representation of day-to-day unconscious biases. Through comments and assumptions that quickly turn into microaggressions, he introduces us to the new reality Laura will face as a minority in the U.S. He is curious about Laura's background and her almost unpredictable accent for a non-American person, but still reinforces discrimination, making her aware of her position as an outsider.

A helpless Latina student who becomes the target of racist remarks on campus. She is vulnerable in this society because of her naivety; bullied solely due to her speaking her native language. She reflects a version of Laura that is still visibly connected to her roots but is too ashamed to accept who she is.

She is confident and integrated within the university. This girl is the pure reflection of what Laura is yet to become if she keeps on hiding who she truly is. As she is a white woman who has never faced prejudice and discrimination due to who she is, her ignorance leads her to participate in racist comments.

He is confident and integrated within the community. As a man who has never faced prejudice and discrimination due to who he is, his ignorance leads him to participate in racist comments.

Professional and well-intentioned, the teacher is your typical devoted instructor who has been teaching for years and has this love and passion towards the institution.

Persian. Native Farsi speaker. Strong, assertive. Maman is a sharp, no-nonsense mother who has spent her entire life holding everything together. She’s practical, blunt, and often unintentionally funny, but underneath is someone who has sacrificed a lot and doesn’t really have space to fall apart. She loves deeply, even when it comes out as control, criticism, and constant caretaking. The kind of person who will hand you food, tell you you’re doing everything wrong, and mean both as love.

Persian. Native Farsi speaker. Aloof, kind. In his own world. Baba is a gentle, soft-spoken man who used to be something more — educated, respected — and has quietly had to let that go. He’s kind, polite, and always trying to keep the peace, often at his own expense. He smiles through things he shouldn’t have to. There’s a quiet dignity to him, but also a sense that he’s been made smaller by his circumstances. He doesn’t fight back until he absolutely has to.

White. Bowling alley patron. Funny and friendly at first, before inciting a racist fight at the climax. A regular at the alley. Loud, entitled, and way too comfortable. He thinks he’s funny and harmless, but crosses lines constantly — especially when it comes to race and respect. The kind of guy who doesn’t see himself as the problem, even when he clearly is. Quick to escalate when his ego gets bruised.

Eastern European. Bowling alley head chef. Funny. Rough around the edges, dry, and a bit unpredictable. He has that dark, slightly offbeat sense of humour that comes from having lived through things he doesn’t fully talk about. He doesn’t sugarcoat anything and doesn’t care if he comes off as rude. Underneath that, though, he’s observant and more empathetic than he lets on.

White. Bowling alley patron. Silly, a bit clueless. Karaoke aficionado. Needs great comedic chops. A regular at the alley who’s always a little too drunk and a little too loud, but not mean-spirited. He’s messy, inappropriate, and has zero sense of boundaries, but there’s something oddly endearing about him. He genuinely likes the people around him and wants to be included, even when he’s being a nuisance.

LATINA. A chef. She holds a class at the ranch on how to make her famous Christmas tamales and compliments Graham on his tamales. *Please suggest performers who are fluent in Spanish... ACTOR ROLE.

Mia (6-9) A kind and lively little girl who is fond of Joe and longs for a father figure.

He has no bottom line—only survival—and is driven purely by profit. Joe’s former coach and an accomplice in framing him years ago, he launders money for Scott, arranges underground fights, and even kidnaps Bella and her daughter, with the blood of many fighters on his hands. He seeks to control Joe, but when Scott is finally arrested, he is the first to step forward as a cooperating witness.

Scott’s lackey and a spoiled heir of the Martin Group—arrogant, despicable, and a bully who preys on the weak. He has committed every kind of wrongdoing.
