Title

Dave

Content

Dave is the mobile operations manager on the UK rail network. We're looking for a versatile actor who can play the character in two very different ways. The film consists of three scenes, firstly featuring "conscientious Dave" - a character who not only knows his job handles people and time management carefully. The same scenes are then replayed with a version of Dave who is lacking in non-technical (eg personal, time-management etc) skills, which results in an accident.
