Paola Ceseracciu discovered her passion for acting when performing musicals in her local theatre back home in Italy, during her teenage years. But it is only when she moved to the UK, that she decided to take her passion seriously and start focusing on screen acting.

​

Since her first acting classes in Manchester she's been building and developing her craft and moved to London where she had her first on set experience in the short film "The gift".

​

During an acting class she meet Tony Deufemia who introduced her to Eric Garson leading to Trophy Wife. This is her first lead role.

​

Ava's character is a captivating role to play, it's so far away from Paola herself and probably from the majority of roles she's come across, but at the same time so approachable.

​

This is the main reason the challenge was so exciting to take on.

​

Ava's ethereal and flawless soul faces a journey of discoveries in her life and relationship that opens up a conflict between her so perfect existence and her human sides.

I started acting when I moved to Vancouver from my hometown in Canada around 2012.

​

Watching films and television was something that connected me in profound ways to the people that I loved growing up and was always something I knew I wanted to do from a very young age. It’s a way for me to express myself fully and freely. It’s my art.

​

I’ve worked with amazing like-minded creatives but am especially grateful for the directors I’ve worked with such as Daniel J. Brant, Sara Jordan, Frank Hammond and of course, Eric Garson. Between both theatre and film, I seem to gravitate towards characters who are vastly different to me in one way or another, which is a wonderful challenge. Whether it’s been a psychological thriller, a romantic drama or an action packed horror- it’s been so much fun! And I love the whole process of taking on a different perspective and being curious about something I’ve never personally been through or experienced before and finding the synchronicities to then bring something new to life.

​

The first time I met Eric was somewhere on Southbank in London where we met for his film ‘Diva’ and we had our first table read with the other cast members and some crew- the rest is history. Through all the films we’ve worked on and all the conversations had, I love working with Eric because we seem to have such a beautiful blind faith and belief in each other. He has always encouraged me to run wild and take up more space. And I value that so much because when you’re in that kind of energy flow and it’s reciprocated, it allows a space of endless possibility to open up. And we find what works and what doesn’t but it’s never taken personally. It’s just discovering and becomes the birthplace of those gorgeous, couldn’t write it, unscripted, magic moments.

​

Well, I’m from a dusty little logging town in northern British Columbia where I grew up. It was during my final year in high school, playing ‘Scout Finch’ in ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’, for my drama class play, that fully solidified and ignited my passion for acting. Even though it was hard to leave my family and friends, even though I was terrified, I knew I wouldn’t get anywhere if I stayed in my hometown. So I packed my dreams and the $500 I had in my pocket and began my new journey at a film school in Vancouver. And then in 2016 an opportunity came up to live in England where I’ve always wanted to be. It quickly became home and ever since, I’ve immersed myself in everything it has to offer and base my work out of London. 

​

I play ‘Rhea’ in the film, who is a fiery force of swirling mystery and seduction. After finding herself in a twisted web of betrayal with Frank, she creates her own path to seek the truth, despite everything standing in her way.

Tony Deufemia got into acting in 2018. He's wanted to be an actor since childhood, but circumstances didn't align until he began taking a series of acting courses before taking his first steps into the industry. 

Tony got his first lead role in a short film called "Post Heist" in 2019, where he first met and worked with Eric. They've worked together on a few projects since and he jumped at the chance to work with him again on Trophy Wife.
