Breakdown:
| Role Name | Gender | Ethnicity | Age Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kelly | Female | Hispanic | 22-35 | Kelly (25) is shy, optimist and hard worker, as well as a daydreamer. She has been overprotected by her older brothers and has never had sex. She came from Mexico after her father migrated from Sinaloa to California. Arrived to Los Angeles in 1999, crossing the border illegally with her mother as a DACA child. She is not tall, but has a slim figure and a personal charm. She is the type of person that always returns the change if the cashier gave her a higher amount. |
| Maria | Female | Hispanic | 30-45 | Maria (32) has worked for the last years as a hotel cleaner, but she has done everything to survive in LA since she came with her husband, Josué, 15 years ago. He brought her from El Salvador after establishing himself as a professional landscaper. She is attractive and extrovert, and despite the fact that her marriage is a wreck, she is not finding anyone else as interesting as to get an opportunity from her. She is the type of person that dances alone in the supermarket if she gets a good tune on her headphones. |
| Ernesto | Male | Any | 40-60 | Ernesto (48) is chubby and vivid. He can seem very nice and friendly, but his work comes first. He take very seriously his responsibilities and is not willing to lose time. He doesn’t have a family and is quite sexually frustrated. Frustration that tends to bring to work as cleaning manager of the Motel Santa Clarita when he feels overpassed by his workers. In the end he is not such a bad guy and would do anything to protect a person in need, but he is one of those who thinks that in life you have to earn what you diserve. He is the type of guy that talks to the bus driver. Even when there is a sign that says: don’t talk to the bus driver. |
| Steve | Male | Any | 35-60 | Steve (52) is a public servant used to travel a lot for work and with few personal connections. He has no wife nor kids, and doesn’t see himself settling at any point of his life. He is ambitious, sometimes dark and mournful. From time to time he goes out until losing control to feel that his life is more exciting. But the truth is that always goes back to the same clubs trying to cultivate friendships that will never be. He is the type of person that goes to strip clubs to make friends with the strippers. And, obviously, leaves the strip clubs without cash nor friends. |
