Every year my Polish teacher (i.e., teacher of Polish) makes a video with her class. This year we decided to do a soap opera based on the story in our podręcznik (textbook). I play the lead male, Michel, a guy from France who decides to learn Polish and study in Kraków in order to help trace his family heritage. I'm also a ladies man -- a role quite different than the one I'm used to playing.
For this weekend's homework we were paired up and given at least 1 scene to storyboard, write dialogue for, etc. One of the scenes my pair was given was the awkward dinner between Agnieszka, the girl who likes me, and Robert, her essentially cuckolded boyfriend. And, boy, do I know how to write about awkward dinners, having had quite a few myself. Agnieszka is supposed to receive a text from Michel during dinner asking her to come over later, she lies about it, and then runs to Michel's place. This will, no doubt, be one of the better scenes in the production.
I'm just wondering who's going to end up playing Agnieszka because I think there's supposed to be a scene where we kiss and I don't want to make that awkward.
