Arabic-Speaking Teen Actor Wanted for Lead Role in Feature Film

Job Description
A powerful new feature film is casting a teenage boy of Syrian, Lebanese, Palestinian, Jordanian, or Iraqi heritage to portray a deeply emotional and nuanced lead role.

This role calls for a talented young actor who can carry both emotional weight and subtle comedic timing.
