Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap’s neo-noir thriller Kennedy continued its international journey on Friday, receiving a positive audience response at the 10th Indie Meme Film Festival in Austin, Texas. Shot mostly at night on the streets of Mumbai over a span of 30 days, Kennedy follows an insomniac ex-cop, presumed dead, who continues to work for a corrupt system while seeking redemption. Written by Anurag Kashyap during the lockdown, the film stars Rahul Bhatt and Sunny Leone.
The packed screening of Kennedy which is the 27th directorial of Kashyap had the filmmaker in attendance, who was touched by the thrilling reception of the film. “It’s heartwarming to see Kennedy still getting so much love from the audiences across the world,” Anurag said from Austin about the film which kicked off its glorious global run in 2023 when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. “It’s almost two years after its Cannes premiere and I still get invited across the world to talk about it.
Back home, my producers are working towards the release of the film, and it should happen soon,” the filmmaker added. Kennedy has been dominating film circuits across the world, as it has travelled to nearly 20 plus film festivals since it's 2023 opening, including Sydney Film Festival - Australia, Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival - South Korea (Republic of Korea), Neuchatel International Film Festival - Switzerland, Indian Film Festival of Melbourne - Australia, London Indian Film Festival - UK, Fantastic Fest - USA, Jio MAMI Mumbai Film Festival and Kolkata International Film Festival among others. Kennedy is produced by Zee Studios and Good Bad Films.
