Death of a Seagull

Nina is an actress forced to re-audition for a role she already has, on the film set where she was meant to be shooting. Competing against Lili, another actress, under her director’s demands, she reaches her breaking point. As the line between character and true self fades, she realizes she only feels alive when performing, and her essence slips away each time the curtain falls.
