The Scout Movie

Teaser Trailer

The Scout Movie Trailer HD - Plot synopsis: OPENS IN NEW YORK SEPTEMBER 25. IN THEATERS NATIONWIDE THIS FALL.  Sofia works as a location scout for a TV pilot filming in New York City. It’s her job to find the homes, businesses, and exteriors where the show will be filmed. Driving around the city's different neighborhoods, she enters the private spaces of strangers to photograph their cozy apartments and eclectic shops, stepping into the fabric of their lives while trying to satisfy the demands of her erratic employers. Over a day filled with these encounters, Sofia witnesses moments of curiosity, vulnerability, and quiet tension until her work takes a sudden, personal turn. Drawing from her own experience as a location scout, writer-director Paula González-Nasser captures the poetry and costs of being a young creative. Her celebrated directorial debut THE SCOUT crafts a contemplative exploration of urban disconnection, following one woman's journey through other people's worlds as she struggles to find her own.  #TheScout

00:00This is the property of 906 Carroll Place, the owner.

00:03If you're going to waste my time and not pick up the phone,

00:06don't waste my time and put letters on my door.

00:08Thank you and have a nice day.

00:14Hi, my name is Sophia.

00:17I'm a location scout for a TV show.

00:20So what do you need from me?

00:21I would just take a few photographs of the different rooms that you have,

00:26share that with the team and the director,

00:28and if they like it and they think it works for the space,

00:31then I get back to you on dates.

00:40How'd you get this job?

00:43Are y'all hiring?

00:46Hi, Sophia. It's Richie.

00:48I got a call from you about filming something at my house.

00:50If you'd like to call me back, I'll talk about it with you.

00:52You get to go all over the city and meet all kinds of new people

00:56and be an artist.

00:58I'm, like, stuck talking to clients all day.

01:01You know how exhausting that is?

01:10We're taking a look at the dining room over there.

01:13I don't think this is going to work.

01:15Why not?

01:16It's just too low.

01:17What do you mean low?

01:19Like, like, the opposite of a pie.

01:25I respect and value your time.

01:27Look, I've already locked up.

01:29You can just tell Jasmine's not happening.

01:30We can negotiate another grand on your behalf.

01:36People usually think I work for the census,

01:39so they don't answer the door.

01:42But, uh, what else do people think you do?

01:45Okay.

01:46What about that other place that you've had?

01:48One of the things I like about your generation

01:50is that you have no sense of time.

01:52Really comfortable.

01:54None!

01:54One of the things I've fucked up is that they don't

01:57know what I do.

02:11You should read the council members permanently.

02:11I'll hang on with you.

02:11You
