Character Breakdown:

JEB
Male, 20s-30s, Slim build, Dark Complexion
Jeb, a quiet, slightly dopey, nonchalant house painter is the object of a young girl’s love. While harmlessly charming, he is totally unaware of her affections.

JENINE
Female, 20-30, Thin, waif-like
Jenine, seemingly naive and awkward, is desperately in love with a young house painter, for whom she is willing to go to great lengths. She’s well-intentioned but could use a reality check about the basics of life and love.

BOSSO
Female, late 50s-early 60s, Stern facial features, Dark complexion
Bosso is a reclusive mystic woman whose bitterness and cynicism about life aren’t the most unnerving things about her. A piercing gaze and terse demeanour are only a few of the tricks she uses to make everyone else around her cripplingly uncomfortable.

YOUNG BOSSO
Female, 20s-30s, Slender, Dark complexion
Young Bosso is pensive and evocative in her appearance. Her face tells an entire story of distinct but complicated emotional turmoil.

FARMER
Male, 30 +, Regular build
The Farmer is of typical gait, whose body is able to demonstrate physical strain.
