Description: Act Persia is a new group based in Ottawa looking for real talented people who would like to be involved in the projects.
We are in the middle of making a short film. Pre-production is over and we will be in production stage in 2 weeks. If anyone is interested in helping us in making films, let us know. although you will be travelling to Ottawa on some of weekends that we have shooting, but this will be something that you would love to do.
