Despite her young age, India Ennenga has quickly distinguished herself as a tremendous actress, highly sought after in both film and television. This talented and precocious young teen is currently filming the 3rd season of David Simon’s hit HBO series “Treme” opposite Melissa Leo playing her daughter Sofia Bernette.
She’ll next be seen as one of the leads of Nobody Walks that’ll be in dramatic competition and making its World Premiere at Sundance in January 2012. It’s an indie drama directed by Ry Russo-Young (You Won’t Miss Me) from a script she co-wrote with Lena Dunham (Tiny Furniture) that also stars Olivia Thirlby, Rosemarie DeWitt and John Krasinski. Told over the course of one week, the story follows a Los Angeles family who invites a young, charismatic artist into their home, only to find her disrupting their lives. India plays Kolt, the extremely smart and sardonic daughter of the family.
In 2010, she starred opposite Timothy Hutton and Dana Delaney in Brooks Branch’s independent feature Multiple Sarcasms. Mira Sorvino, Stockard Channing and Mario Van Peebles also starred.
Prior to this, she was seen in another leading role opposite Jason Behr in Stephen Clark’s independent feature The Last International Playboy, which made its World Premiere at Slamdance 2008 and also starred Lucy Gordon, Monet Mazur and Krysten Ritter.
In 2008, she portrayed Molly Haines, Meg Ryan’s daughter in the Diane English directed feature The Women, appearing with Annette Bening, Eva Mendes, Candice Bergen, Cloris Leachman, Jada Pinkett Smith and Debra Messing.
India resides in New York City, where she is currently a senior at Saint Ann’s School.
