The Actor
1990, English. Directed by John Paskievich.
Ken D’Cruz was born in India and lives in Winnipeg. His main career goal in Canada was to be an actor but, his some-time agent advised him that there would be few parts for an actor with his skin colour. To make ends meet Ken took a temporary job as a baby photographer. The “temporary” job has been going on for twelve years. The film chronicles Ken’s picaresque daily adventures as a baby photographer while he continues to dream about being an actor.
