Hi my name's Maeva, I'm 15 and I'm a female, I'd love to play a role in this season, I live in China, but I was born in Cook Island, movies have always held a special place in my heart and life, always liked the idea of escaping the world, could be me and my teenage problems but movies are…. and will always hold that place in my heart
