The Bouquet was a film made when actress Nadine Rahimtoola visited Cassidy from Berlin to talk about a part in a feature that was under development at the time. He was checking out the Canon 60D at the time and, on the spur of the moment, asked Nadine if she'd be interesting in shooting a short. The film was made in an afternoon with sound engineer Simon Murphy stepping in as the lead male. The film was well received on the international festival circuit.
