Jenny
Jenny is a scared character. The young girl, aged 18 is fragile and fearful. She is small and acts vulnerable, but underneath her terrified exterior is a strong yet psychotic woman.
Robert
Jenny’s dad. He is fed up of his daughter and her actions and continually calls her ‘crazy’. He has been around for her all her life, but after Jenny’s mother died, he turned to alcohol. Jenny still considers him a loving presence in her life. He is tall, dark and conventionally handsome, but at the same time an ageing 40 year old.
Sandra
The receptionist of the hotel. She is nosy and has been at the hotel with Sergei for 15 years. She remains young however, as a pretty blonde 35 year old and soon acts as a mother figure to Jenny. But it doesn’t last long, as she soon talks to Jenny’s dad.
Sergei
The housekeeper of the hotel. He knows everyone’s business- especially Jenny’s. He is looking out for her, but ultimately his help leads to failure. He is a very two-faced person. He is close to retirement age, with deep set wrinkles and white hair.
John Doe
The chief blackmailer against Jenny. He is about 60, Skinny and short, He never shows his face on screen, but remains a hidden presence in Jenny’s life throughout the film. He is a very strong character, but his need for Jenny’s information transforms him to a weak person.
Joe Bloggs
Doe’s sidekick. He is far from the brains of the operation, and uses his muscles to any advantage he can. His solution to most problems is violence. A young 25 year old, a tall, muscular man, his face is hidden with a ski mask.
