A Common Chord is looking for extras, Friday and Saturday, May 18-19.
 The film, starring Peter Seadon and Jason Cermak, combines the resources of the University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge College and numerous Lethbridge film makers and actors.

 It is the story of Kyle, a former foster child and talented flamenco guitarist who must become the father he’s never been to his daughter Teigan when her mother dies. Her grandfather wants Kyle to be completely removed from her life. Their conflict over it blinds them to their love for the little girl.

The movie will be shot in June 2012. It was written by Trevor Carroll and Deric Olsen and features original music by Josh Reuban Fritz. George Gallant is the producer.
