Alaa's Character:

Silas Moore

“I

was

initially

inspired

to

write

this

story

after

an

arid

two

years

of

unemployment.

The

constant

rejection

shook

my

ambition

to

pursue

acting

at

its

core.

I

made

'Coming

Home'

as

a

first

dive

into

the

life

of

an

actor

who

attends

a

potentially

life-changing

audition.

I

portray

a

character

that

carries

a

lot

of

my

neuroses

and

navigates

through

events

that

are

based

on

my

personal

experience.

I

felt

empowered

to

take

responsibility

for

whatever

happens

to

me,

by

turning

it

into

art.”
