Up in Smoke is a short film that sees an alienated young woman gain momentary purpose when listening to a self-help CD centering on restraint. Whilst its teachings allow her to displace the ritual of smoking, when she unwittingly encounters the author in a pub, she is confronted with the confusing truth that his motivations were born from self-righteousness rather than a desire to help

Protagonist
Corrie is a sensitive and intelligent young woman who feels dissatisfied with life due to both the lack of structure after graduating University and the nihilism of her peers. She is receptive to self-help because of this and it leads her on a journey of realisation.
Much of the performance will be through Corrie's reactions to others behavior, so it's important to be able to convey emotion through looks as well as dialogue. You will also be required to smoke cigarettes during the role.
