Roles
Main role: “Bo”
Age: 19-25 years old / female
Appearance: European
Description: Kind and friendly, Bo enjoys talking to strangers but struggles to let anyone into her life. She avoids romantic relationships out of fear of rejection. Previously, Bo lived with her mother in a small town, but she recently moved in with her grandmother, who resides in the center of a larger city. Her parents separated when she was 8 years old, and she has hardly seen her father since then. Uncertain about her future, Bo has taken a temporary job at the post office, which seems to fit her current lifestyle.
Secondary role: “Filip”
Age: between 23-30 years old / male
Appearance: European
Description: His parents are Polish emigrants, and helps his father with the family construction business. Although he has lived in the Netherlands from a young age, he still struggles to find his place in society and feels obligated to support his parents.
