We are casting the lead role of Granny in a short film called Walk Me There, a warm, funny, human story set in Los Angeles. The film follows an elderly woman who gets off at the wrong bus stop while trying to make it to her Social Security appointment. Lost, overwhelmed, and struggling with limited English, she meets a kind stranger who decides to walk with her. The story is sweet, grounded, and about the small moments of kindness that can change someone's day. ROLE: GRANNY Female, Latina/Hispanic, age range 65–85. Granny is tiny but determined. She is sweet, funny, stubborn, vulnerable, and full of life. She doesn't want to be a burden, but she's scared of being lost in a city that keeps moving around her. The role requires natural comedic timing, warmth, and emotional honesty. Must be comfortable speaking Spanish and some English. Looking for: A natural, grounded performer. Someone who feels like a real grandmother you might meet in Los Angeles — funny without trying, direct, loving, expressive, and a little dramatic in the best way.
