UK’s Swipe Films to distribute Anurag Kashyap’s movie

MUMBAI: UK-based Swipe Films has bagged the worldwide distribution rights of Anurag Kashyap‘s That Girl in Yellow Boots.

Written by Kalki Koechlin and Kashyap, the film stars Kalki Koechlin as Ruth along with Naseeruddin Shah, Prashant Prakash, Gulshan Devaiya, Shivkumar Subramaniam, Divya Jagdale, Kumud Mishra and Kartik Krishnan.

The film is a thriller tracing Ruth‘s search for her father, a man she hardly knew but cannot forget. Desperation drives her to work without a permit at a massage parlour in Mumbai. Torn between several schisms, the city becomes an alien but yet strangely turns out to be a familiar backdrop for Ruth‘s quest. 

The film had its world premiere in ‘Out of Competition‘ at the Venice Film Festival on 9 September and will be screened at the Toronto International Film Fest next week.
NFDC has also joined hands with Kashyap by pulling out the project of post production limbo and completing it.

Swipe Films, a production, sales and distribution company, has produced films like Grand Theft Parsons and Osama, the winner of a Golden Globe for Best Foreign Film.
