Hello!

I'm emailing on behalf of Morman Boling Casting, 
an LA based casting office conducting a 
nationwide search for the lead of a feature film.

We are looking for young men ages 15-20 who are 
blind or visually impaired.  Acting experience is 
not required.  This is a paid job with 
experienced filmmakers shooting in Toronto.

Would you please help us spread the word to your members and mailing list?

INFORMATION ABOUT FILM/ROLE/AUDITIONING:

FILM
*Phreaker* is inspired by true events. Before 
there were hackers, there were phreakers.  A 
blind teenager joins the early 2000s underworld 
of “phone freaks” where he learns to hack his 
way to money, power, and eventually, a place on the FBI’s most wanted list.

DIRECTOR
Director Adam Yorke’s latest film *See for Me*, 
which he co-wrote and co-produced, premiered at 
Tribeca in 2021 and sold internationally as the 
one of highest selling Canadian film of the 
year.  Released by IFC Film in January 2022 to 
both critical and commercial success, becoming 
the number one independent film on VOD in its 
first week and hailed by Variety as “A Cult Classic in the Making.”
