In The Name Of Clericalism
Location: Montreal
Type: Film
What is ‘In The Name Of God, Our Father Clericalism’ about?
June 18th, 1982, Blackfriars Bridge, London, England. The body of Roberto Calvi, who handled a major share of the Vatican’s finances is found hanging under the bridge, just days after the collapse of the biggest private bank in Italy, which he was responsible for. Initially recorded as a hanging, the truth will reveal a more sinister story involving murder, the mafia and links all the way up the top of the Vatican, including the pope himself.
Who we are looking for?
Character 1 – Roberto Calvi
We are looking for a white middle aged gentleman 50’s/60’s, preferably of Italian/Mediterranean/European origin with bald head and black hair at the sides. Will need to have a short moustache for the scene. Medium height and build preferred, but not essential. Please see the images.
This role requires a murder scene on a boat. The character will essentially be strangled with a rope. However it will be insinuated rather than gratuitously acted out, but there will some elements of physical acting including being lifted up off the floor by another actor.
This IS A NON-SPEAKING ROLE.
As such there are no language or accent requirements, we are just trying to find someone with a similar look to the real life Roberto Calvi. Therefore if you know any friends or family who might fit the profile and would be interested in having a fun experience for which they would get paid (modestly), then please forward this on.
Character 2 – Pope Jean Paul II
We are looking for a white middle-aged/elder gentleman 50’s/60’s/70’s, with white/grey short hair, thinning on top. Shorter height preferred, though not essential as will be sitting down. Please see the images.
This IS A NON-SPEAKING ROLE.
This is a super easy role that requires very little on the part of the actor. They will just be sitting at a desk in a full pope costume doing some admin at a desk, while another Bishop comes and whispers something in their ear and that’s it. As such there are no language or accent requirements, we are just trying to find someone with a similar look to the real life Pope Jean Paul II.
Therefore if you know any friends or family who might fit the profile and would be interested in having a fun experience for which they would get paid (modestly), then please forward this on.
