Officially selected for the New York Indian Film Festival, British webseries Three Shades of Brown will hold its World Premiere in the United States on Tuesday 6th May 2014, being shown in its entirety as a stand-alone 40-minute film.
Receiving the good news before even the pilot episode was released, Creator Shai Hussain remarks, “It’s great to see the faith that Nyiff holds for Three Shades, selecting to screen it even before we had a chance to prove there was an audience for such material.”
The film will be shown with English subtitles, due to feedback that one of the character’s Northern dialects was difficult to understand for the American ear.
