Lorsque Mona Friedman décroche un petit rôle dans un théâtre de quartier, cette femme au foyer discrète et effacée découvre un espace où, pour la première fois, elle peut exister pleinement. Elle se prend au jeu avec une intensité inattendue, jusqu’à transformer ce petit rôle en véritable combat personnel. Prête à tout pour lui donner du sens et en préserver l’intégrité artistique, elle n’hésite pas à tenir tête à un metteur en scène autoritaire. À mesure qu’elle s’affirme, elle trouve peu à peu sa place dans le monde - et se révèle à elle-même.

00:00Hey Mona,
00:01What did you do all day?
00:03Kids can drive.
00:04She doesn't do anything anymore.
00:05Today I auditioned for a musical show.
00:08Mona, look at you.
00:10Full of surprises.
00:15What's your story?
00:16I don't think we've seen you before.
00:18I haven't sung in front of anyone since church choir.
00:22We're auditioning for Jerry.
00:23Who's Jerry?
00:25Basically the biggest name in New Jersey Community Theatre.
00:28He's brilliant but he's not here to be your friend.
00:30Hi Jerry.
00:31Mocha no milk when you have it.
00:34Mona Friedman.
00:36That's me.
00:37You're up.
00:38Whenever you're ready.
00:42Mona?
00:42Yes?
00:43You're the only person who auditions for Miss Danielle.
00:45You got the part.
00:49Jerry is gonna test you and push you and drag you through the mud.
00:53No one move!
00:55Mona, look at me and say your line three times in a row and don't blink.
00:59Can I blink first before we start?
01:01No, go.
01:02Everyone can take the rest of the day off.
01:05Except for Mona.
01:07Every single thing you are doing is not working.
01:11Hi Miss Danielle.
01:13Thanks for coming by on such short notice.
01:14What seems to be the problem Barnaby?
01:16Jerry!
01:18Sorry, is that, um, is that how she's gonna do it?
01:20Jerry, your mocha.
01:22It's too late for that.
01:22Of course.
01:25All of the baggage that you've been holding on to your whole life.
01:28Honey, did you make dinner?
01:31Use it.
01:32I'll need my tool belt.
01:33And a mocha.
01:34No milk.
01:35I knocked you off the goddamn wall and you are lying in pieces all over the ground.
01:39It hurts!
01:40Oh God, did she kill you?
01:42No.
01:42But we are gonna put Humpty Dumpty back together again.
01:45And Mona, when we do that, you are gonna be dynamite, baby.
01:52What did the mask of Miss Danielle feel like?
01:56I could do anything.
01:57I could say anything.
02:00You know, I used to be an actor.
02:02When I saw you up there, I just thought, I wish that was me.
02:10Opening night.
02:12When the lights are on me,
02:16I'm gonna shine.
