From what it’s also possible to tell from the trailer, the title stems from an experimental program named Indemnity created by a company called Mtech. Furthermore, we can surmise that Abrams will become entangled in a plot much larger than himself and will have to do everything in his power to survive, clear his name and get to the bottom of this conspiracy, all of this while struggling with his personal inner demons.
In addition to SAFTA-award winner Geduld in the main role,Indemnityalso starsNicole Fortuin, Andre Jacobs, Gail Mabalane,andTshamano Sebe. Although not much else is know about this film one thing is for certain, this will be a fast-paced action-packed experience, featuring big explosions, shoot-outs and intense fighting scenes which will please those who revel in watching action-heavy movies.
Indemnitywill have its world premiere at the Fantasia Film Festival on July 10, 2025.
