We are looking for two male lead characters for a character-driven short film centred on two young men. The project explores identity, faith, and emotional connection with a restrained, naturalistic tone.

A gravely injured young man washes up on a desolate stretch of the Northern Irish coast, with no memory of how he got there. Taken in by a guarded young clergyman three weeks away from his own ordination, an intense and dangerous closeness develops between them - until the mystery of the stranger's origins threatens to consume them both.
