Played by Nathan Brimmer, Serge is the type of man who doesn’t like putting himself in a box. Spending his whole life striving for greatness, this white painting acts as a symbol of the status Serge now has. 

Slight shifts in tones and him climbing the social ladder leaves Marc feeling like he is no longer his best friend. 

Obsessed with things staying the same Marc, played by Philip Leone-Ganado, cannot comprehend what went through Serge’s mind when he acquired this blank canvas. This out-of-character act rocks the whole basis that their friendship is built on. 

With Marc and Serge questioning the value of their friendship, Yvan is left to placate both sides. 

Being the butt of the joke within this friend group, Yvan is constantly left breathless and speechless. With Joseph Zammit portraying Yvan, he is left with the job of keeping this sinking ship afloat. 

Juggling his personal life and these two, Yvan acts as the glue holding these three together.
