ABOUT EMBRACE: Ben (Ryan) and his wife, Meera (Hazlewood) are trapped in a Mumbai hotel when it comes under terrorist siege by gunmen. Finding themselves trapped and their friends massacred, the couple manages to stay hidden but compelled to make life-altering choices that will test their love. This is the first ever motion picture dramatization of the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks. The short is also the basis for a feature intertwining four love stories against a backdrop of terror around the world including London, New York and Rio.
LAURELS/REVIEWS:
Official Jury Selection-
* New York Indian Film Festival.
* Louisville's Festival of Film.
* International Film Festival of Cinematic Arts, Los Angeles.
"Embrace captures the raw intensity of two ordinary people -- a couple -- caught in hotel crossfire that lasted three days. How they held each other in the midst of Hell was a fascinating glimpse of humanity in crisis. The film delivers a message of the defeat of evil and triumph over adversity."
