Casting "Your Brain Matters Too," a dark comedy. Synopsis: Follows Santiago, a hilariously clueless corporate employee who spends his weekend playing video games, entirely missing the start of a real-world zombie apocalypse. When he walks to work on Monday, his "sluggish" co-worker Phil bites him. Dragged into the office, Santiago is unknowingly welcomed into a "progressive new movement" called YBMT ("Your Brain Matters Too") by his boss, Carla, who offers him a promotion to manage their growing clientele.

Production states: "This film will be hitting festivals in 2027 and is a proof-of-concept for a potential series or feature film".
