Teens for new feature film

I am looking for the following to submit to casting for a new feature film being shot on the East Coast (casting out of NY)








[HENRY] 13 years old (submit 10-14yrs), Caucasian Male – He is a true innocent, who wears his sensitivity and the anxiety of pre-sexual enlightenment like wet pajamas. Henry has taken over the role of caretaker and protector to his fragile, reclusive mother Adele and, while he still sees his remarried father once a week, he knows Adele is his real family. He is an observant boy who understands his mother’s loneliness and longing and makes her "husband for a day" coupons, but is just too young to understand what part of a husband he is not equipped to carry out. When a new man enters the picture, the friend-less Henry is both exhilarated by the relationship and threatened by the prospect that he is no longer needed by his mother. LEAD.

[ELEANOR] 14yrs, (submit 10-14 yrs) Caucasian. A skinny girl who may or may not still have an eating disorder. Also a product of a broken home, she is newly moved from a big city to live with her father and already bored with the small town entertainments. An intelligent girl, she dreams of a boarding school where the focus is drama and the teachers "stay off your case." Eleanor learned how to get what she wants with wit, calculations and her newly developed sexual awareness. To Henry she is the mysterious hot girl who seems to know everything about the world that he doesn’t. LEAD

[BARRY] 15 years. Caucasian, special needs, could be Down’s Syndrome or Cerebral Palsy. He is the wheelchair bound son of Adele's only friend Evelyn. He is perhaps more engaged in the world around him than his mother realizes. He can only communicate through gurgles and mumbles. Seeking actors who can play this condition and those who have the condition. SUPPORTING.
