Being an actor is not all glamour and red carpets. What happens behind the scenes, during castings and rehearsals? How do you get a part? And what do you do when you don't get it? These fiction films follow five characters as they go from small humiliations to big victories (or the other way around). There's Dasha who is tired of always being called to play sexy extras; Bella, a disabled actress who has to teach a film star how to use a wheelchair; or Malky who agrees to lighting tests in the hope of landing a game-changing role... A special programme that tackles serious issues with humour, and fights stereotypes with spirit and wit.


Total running time: 56 mins

A struggling disabled actress gets a job advising a film star how to be disabled for his latest role.
