 "Uttera Singh's directorial debut 'Pinch' to make Asia premiere at IFFI after Tribeca debut")
Following its warmly received world premiere at the Tribeca Festival, Pinch, the directorial debut of actor-filmmaker Uttera Singh, is now set for its Asia premiere at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI).
Directed by and starring Uttera Singh, the film features a compelling ensemble cast including Geeta Agrawal, Sunita Rajwar, Sapna Sand, Badri Chavan, and Nitish Panday. At Tribeca, Pinch drew an overwhelming reception from both audiences and critics.
A dark comedic drama set during the Navratri festival, Pinch explores secrets, societal dynamics, and shifting power structures within an Indian apartment complex. The story follows Maitri, an aspiring travel vlogger grappling with career frustrations, family tensions, and unresolved grief, whose life unravels after an unsettling encounter with a trusted neighbor.
“Film festivals play such an important role in the journey of independent filmmaking as they give stories like ours a platform to reach people and be discovered. I’m truly glad that IFFI is showcasing Pinch, because bringing this film to audiences in India, where its world and characters belong, means so much to me.” Said Uttera.
The film will be screened on 25th of November at IFFI in Goa.
