Summary HI I am casting 3 lovely scripts for Fathers Day for Not On The High Street. We are looking for three Fathers + three children. We are looking to shoot an honest, authentic, emotional film so would love  to investigate having REAL DADS AND THEIR CHILDREN AS AN OPTION, especially  with the younger kids.

Its about getting the right connection and emotion WE NEED A HIGH LEVEL OF ACTING SKILL FROM THE CHILDREN i.e. Girls 1 & 3 have dialogue (but it is quite natural) and Boy 2 needs to cry if possible – please only suggest accordingly.
