‘Trishna’ to be Screened at Toronto Film Festival
Awesome news, everyone! The line-up for the movies at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival was announced this morning – and Trishna is one of them! The movie, directed by Michael Winterbottom, stars Freida Pinto and Riz Ahmed and is based on Thomas Hardy’s novel Tess of the d’Urbervilles. It’s set in contemporary India and tells the tragic love story between the son of a wealthy property developer and the daughter of a rickshaw driver. Freida Pinto is expected to attend the film festival, for the third (!) time in her career.
No word yet on when the screening will take place, but the film festival runs September 8-18. With Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Trishna, Immortals and Black Gold premiering in the coming months, it’s shaping up to be quite a year for Freida, isn’t it?
