STORYLINE:
Miles and Ozzy, the off-beat odd couple and not so dynamic duo, follow clues across Detroit tracking the mysterious disappearance of her gaming console. Yet they uncover something much bigger — and more demonic — than they bargained for.

.
CASTING:

OZZY – LEAD ROLE – FEMALE – 18 YRS OLD 
**STILL LOOKING**
Age 18 to play younger 14. Diversity, please! She’s a precocious, witty, street smart gamer who often has everything figured out – until she doesn’t. Forced to rely on her oddball neighbour for help finding her stolen gaming console, she’s a take-action force of energy but begins to learn how to think before acting and eventually realizes that sometimes reality isn’t the same as the gaming world. She’s also surprisingly adept at speaking drunk when she encounters Uncle Bob, much to Miles’ surprise.
**PLEASE DO NOT RESUBMIT IF YOU HAVE DONE SO ON A PREVIOUS BREAKDOWN**

FAT ROB – PRINCIPAL ROLE – MALE – 18-20 YRS OLD – ANY ETHNICITY
Overweight and living in a sketchy part of town, he’s a shady friend of Ozzy’s who may or may not have stolen the console.
