Indemnity 

South African Action Thriller ‘Indemnity’ Releases First Trailer Ahead of World Premiere at Fantasia 2021

A high-tension, politically-charged action thriller shot and wrapped safely during the pandemic, Indemnity is the latest from Cape Town production studio Gambit Films, producers of the hit Netflix series Blood & Water, and instrumental in bringing South African genre cinema into the mainstream. The film marks the feature debut from writer/director Travis Taute, co-writer of Nosipho Dumisa’s award-winning NUMBER 37 and co-director of the short that preceded it by the same name, as well as a writer and director on Blood & Water. Indemnity stars  SAFTA-award winner Jarrid Geduld (ELLEN: DIE STORIE VAN ELLEN PAKKIES), Nicole Fortuin (FLATLAND), Andre Jacobs (BLACK VENUS), Gail Mabalane (BLOOD & WATER), and Tshamano Sebe (THE SOUL COLLECTOR). The film is produced by Bradley Joshua and Benjamin Overmeyer.

Synopsis for Indemnity 

An ex-firefighter in Cape Town is forced to fight for his life after being accused of murdering his wife. As he struggles to survive, connections are revealed between his past, the origin of his PTSD, the mysterious death of his wife, and a government conspiracy with terrifying implications.

Reaching a whole new scale of production for South African action films, Indemnity’s lead, Jarrid Geduld, spent three months training with stunt masters Vernon Willemse and Grant Powell (FURY ROAD, TOMB RAIDER) and succeeded at all of his own stunts, including a record-breaking hanging suspension stunt performed from the 21st floor.

Indemnity 

Indemnity will World Premiere August 11 at the Imperial Theatre in Montreal, QC, as well as screen virtually, as part of the 25th Fantasia International Film Festival.
