September 2025: I'd left film for a stable tech job, and I was miserable. So I promised myself I would make a feature that same year. The story came from the grief I'd carried since I was sixteen — and from my aunt, who I lost. December 2025: script locked. Storyboards on the hood of a car. (I wrote the story in 5 days.) Then I sent it out — and people didn't just like it, they were moved. Some cried. That's when I knew. The first $10K came from one donor who believed in the story. Then I put $15K of my own money in. $25K total. No studio, no permission slip. April 2026: 8 of us hit the road for 7 days — two cars, one of them our picture vehicle — then 4 more days in CA. We built the visual world location by location — neon motels, desert at dusk, Americana that feels like a memory. We survived turbulent weather, secured locations as we went, and shot run-and-gun because that's what $25K demands. Two nights in, the crew was running on 4 hours of sleep — driving and filming at the same time. It wasn't safe. So I stopped, rebuilt the whole schedule around 8 hours of rest, and added four stationary days in CA to do it right. Best producing decision I made. Nobody hands you a feature film. You problem-solve your way into one. 🎞️ THE ROAD THAT HOLDS US: After the death of her best friend Charlotte, a guarded young woman sets out on a dusty road trip through the American Southwest to fulfill the travel journal they made together — a bittersweet journey of grief, humor, and self-acceptance.

We're looking for: The Daughter (late 20s): a quiet, internal role. Grieving and suspended in time, she keeps returning to one saved message from the woman who raised her. The Mother (50s): warm, funny, and a little ridiculous. Her whole performance is one heartfelt voicemail that moves from playful to tears. ✨ Paid positions 🗓️ Shoot dates TBD To submit, reply to our story or email me@rebekahgalvan.com. Please share with any actress who should see this. I can't wait to meet you! #castingcall #nowcasting #actresses #shortfilm #indiefilm
