LEAD & SUPPORTING ROLES AVAILABLE!

SYNOPSIS:

BRINK is an independent feature-film. Within the context of a single

fundamentally connected. These stories unfold throughout a retelling
of the events that lead them all, by chance or by fate, to the same

multiple short films, woven together into an intricate fabric that
reveals each plotline on a personal and intimate level.
