Abhishek Banerjee-starrer 'Stolen' to represent India at Venice Film Festival 2023
Set in a remote rural railway station in India, 'Stolen' tells the gripping tale of a five-month-old baby abducted from her mother
The Abhishek Banerjee-starrer 'Stolen' is scheduled to be showcased at the World Premiere of the Venice Film Festival 2023 as India's sole selection.
A suspense thriller film helmed by debutant Karan Tejpal, 'Stolen' will be showcased alongside impressive international features, notably David Fincher's 'The Killer', Bradley Cooper's 'Maestro' and Sofia Coppola's true-story movie 'Priscilla'.
Set in a remote rural railway station in India, 'Stolen' tells the gripping tale of a five-month-old baby abducted from her mother, a woman named Jhumpa Mahato.
This dark and grievous incident draws the attention of two urban brothers, Gautam and Raman, leading them into a labyrinth of challenges that test their relationships and convictions.
Director Karan Tejpal, who started his career as an assistant director with 'Lage Raho Munna Bhai' said "The Festival has a rich history of showcasing remarkable films that have left a mark on the world of cinema, and we are honoured to be in such esteemed company."
The Venice Film Festival will kick off on August 30 and conclude on September 9.
