BRADIFF Festival Co-Directors Jan Ruppe and Louisa Rose Mackleston commented: “We were delighted that so many people came out to the launch of Bradford International Film Festival to see I’m Not an Actor with a Q&A with director Aditya Kripalani and producer Sweta Chhabria. It was an honour to be hosting the UK Premiere of this ground-breaking film before it goes on release to the rest of the country. It was also wonderful to hear the comments of the audience after the film which showed that people from different parts of the community could relate to its themes.”
Reflecting on the premiere, Aditya Kripalani and Sweta Chhabria added: “It was a lovely, warm festival. Jan and Louisa have put together a cosy and welcoming launch. The audience seemed to really enjoy the film, asking a ton of questions and clearly touched by it. We hope, over time, they’re able to bring more of Bradford’s community into the festival and that it continues to grow larger each year.”
