Casting Pearls named to Logo's Click List Season 4 winners

Sunday, March 16, 2008

Deep Stealth Productions’ short film “Casting Pearls” has been named a winner of Season 4 of The Click List: Best in Short Film.

Directed by Andrea James, Casting Pearls illustrates the difficulties transsexual women face in Hollywood via a hectic series of auditions endured by Cassandra, a transsexual actress (played by Calpernia Addams). Cassandra weathers the horrible, funny and cruel things said by various Hollywood professionals with plucky determination and professionalism, showing that decades of bias can’t hold back the real contributions of transgender people to the arts and media.
