Director Amol Palekar has come up with his first English film "Quest", a fast-paced movie that offers a contemporary depiction of an urban couple's life.

The Brisbane Film Festival, Australia, will host the world premier of "Quest" on July 6.

Protagonists Sai and Aditya weave their lives together through professional pressures, personal confusions, and individual dilemmas. Their 'quest' for finding solutions despite the disillusive reality remains incessant.

Known for perfect casting of his characters, Palekar is very happy with performances of Mrinal Kulkarni, Rishi Deshpande, Shishir Sharma and Vijaya Mehta.

Palekar's earlier productions were three consecutive period films - "Dhyaasparva", "Anaahat" and "Paheli".

The story, screenplay and dialogue of "Quest" are credited to Sandhya Gokhale while Debu Deodhar is the cinematographer.

Marked by its very well edged screenplay, ace performances and adroit direction, "Quest" has been already selected in many foreign festivals.

"Quest" will have a Marathi version "Thaang", which will be released in India in August.
