Experiencing Interruptions?

The Wandering Actor

An arrogant actor receives the short script he's meant to play.
Clearly, it's less than what he expected.
Flipping through the initial pages, the actor begins to realize it's
not an ordinary piece.
Perhaps, it's his own story, immersed in a wacky comedy.

Director Statement

It's been a pretty interesting experience having to create this comedy under the challenging conditions we faced during filming.
Plus, I had to play a character and, to add to the challenge, I didn't even have enough time for reshooting my scenes.
I enjoyed working within this genre, which demands caution in certain aspects to avoid proposing a ridiculous story.
Another essential exercise in this training, I'd say.
