VÂNIA SILVA
"Truly through this experience I've realized how much the Human Being can have an unimaginable survival drive, being capable of adapting to any situation. I've been acting all my life, doing mainly stage plays and this experience made me even more aware of my senses. We had hours of very hard work but I believe that all the minutes that we have dedicated to this short was very precious. They were without any doubt moments of great share amongst everyone involved. It was pleasure to work with this team!"


SÉRGIO ARAÚJO
"Can the Human Being really survive in a world of war and destruction? What makes us different from all the other living species? Our humanness? Does it survive too? Or would we return to our most basic instincts? What if it was you? It was shot during the cold month of January and with nothing more than a jacket one suffers, but it is always worth it."


ALEX WAIN
"Survival is a key instinct, its something that we all do every day without realizing it. In a war situation, survival becomes much harder, I couldn't even begin to imagine how difficult it must be!
Doing the voice over for "Surviving" was different, as I've not had much experience in the field, but hey, it's definitely something I can add to my repertoire and I hope to get opportunities like it again!
The majority of my acting has been amateur theater productions, ranging from original comedic scripts through adaptations of Shakespeare and even extended monologues, but I've really had to step up my game recently to keep up with the high caliber of actors that I'm now extremely privileged to be working with."


MELISSA RYNN
"I'm overwhelmed to have had the chance to be involved with 'Surviving'. The contrast between the sinister storyteller and the naive, young character I leant my voice to captured me instantly as quite haunting and seeing the trailer made me realise it was part of an altogether thrilling piece of work. The apocalyptic tone and scale of the film makes it unlike anything I've ever worked with before and, coming from a predominantly theatre based background, I haven't relied solely on my voice very often. Whilst I've appeared in numerous plays, I've only recently started working in films but Bruno's direction made it all very easy despite me being a relative newcomer to this field."
