NEW DELHI: Ritesh Batra‘s Lunchbox and Pete Travis‘ Dredd is being screened at the ongoing 48th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic.

Apart from this screening in the Festival that commenced on 28 June and will conclude on 6 July, Lunchbox is slated to visit at least another twenty international film festivals during this year.

Dabba (Lunchbox), an India-France-Germany co-production is to be screened in the "Horizons" section that presents recent productions from major festivals.

This romantic film set in contemporary Mumbai is a story of lost lunchboxes that engineer a love affair between attractive Ila and ageing Saajan.

Dredd by Pete Travis will have a Midnight Screening at the festival. The film is an UK-USA-India-South Africa co-production. The film revolves around two judges: the incorruptible Dredd and the comely rookie Cassandra Anderson who find themselves battling the arch villain Ma-Ma in an unrelenting slaughter-fest. Dredd is a 3D action movie.

Karlovy Vary International Film Festival 2013 opened with Michel Gondry‘s Mood Indigo starring Audrey Tatou and Romain Duris.
