Description:
Tracy had a happy family, but lost it all when her parents died in a car accident. Deep inside she knows that they are dead, but she is not ready to accept it. Her grief and guilt have manifested in terms of demons that she is dealing with everyday, a shadowy figure that follows her wherever she goes. When early symptoms of schizophrenia hit her, her delusions want her to something extragvagant for her parents, in which she decides to get help from her elder sister Anna, only to come face to face with harsh reality. The only way she can get rid of those demons is by grieving and accepting that it wasn’t her fault that her parents are dead.
Breakdown:
| Role Name | Gender | Ethnicity | Age Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tracy | Female | Caucasian | 19-24 | Tracy is young 20 years old Caucasian girl. Troubled and riddled with guilt. She once had a happy family but lost it, and she is not ready to accept it. She feels the accident that killed her parents was her fault and has birthed demons of her own to deal with. She suffers with early symptoms of schizophrenia. Paranoia and various auditory as well as visual hallucinations are part of her life now. Grooming up or looking good is no longer a priority. Tracy’s guilt has manifested in terms of a figure that constantly follows her wherever she goes, and she feels it may hurt her or people she loves. The only solace and hope of happiness and support for Tracy is Anna, her elder sister. Whenever it’s too much for Tracy to face anything alone, she goes to Anna. Once happy and full of life Tracy, doesn’t even recognize herself anymore. The only way she can move forward is to accept that her parents are no longer there and it’s not her fault. |
| Ana | Male | Caucasian | 23-27 | Anna is not so older than Tracy, at the age of 23 only, she has done well for herself. She is stark opposite of Tracy. Completely calm, composed, and well settled. Anna’s rationality brings balance to Tracy’s high emotions. She is well organized and clean. Even though she has suffered the same loss as Tracy, she has grieved and accepted the reality of life. She might not show it, but she misses her parents too. All she wants is for Tracy to be happy again, and she will go to any length for that even if it means she has to make Tracy face the harsh reality. |
