BREAKDOWN
Derril made a mistake when he was 17 and he's been trying to get it off the internet ever since. Enter Marta, an activist lawyer who sees Derril's fight for privacy as her opportunity to make a mark in the digital age. But freedom of information is also big business and the tech companies aren't going down without a fight. In a time when everyone has their own version of the truth and their own way of spreading it, who decides what must be removed from online and what will live forever? Memory and forgiveness crash against politics and technology in this riveting new drama about truth, lies and the internet.
TO BE CAST
DERRIL LARK: (Late 20s- Early 30s, any ethnicity) a PhD candidate in 19th Century Literature. Very bright, a little strange (though not for lack of trying). For a few months in high school he became obsessed with a girl. It ruined his life.
MARTA LEE: (Late 20s-40s, any ethnicity) a Michigan attorney with her own small private practice. Served in the state's AG office with Annie. Funny, relentlessly intelligent, an idealist.
ANNIE ZADRAVEC: (Late 20s-40s, any ethnicity) a former Chief Deputy Attorney General, now a lobbyist for a major DC law firm. Came to the United States from Serbia in 1997 when she was about 10. Fierce and brilliant.
ALVARO SANTOS: (Late 20s-40s, any ethnicity) a young and ambitious State's Attorney General.
SARITA IMARI: (20s, any ethnicity) a chemist, sweet, quirky, the youngest child
EVE SELINSKY (20s- Early 30s, any ethnicity) an art teacher, serious. Followed by Derril as a teenager. She's worked hard not to let it ruin her life.
