Keane is an American 2004 independent, low-budget film written and directed by Lodge Kerrigan and introduced by executive producer Steven Soderbergh. Set and filmed in New York, it stars Damian Lewis as William Keane, a schizophrenic and disturbed man trying to come to terms with the abduction of his daughter three months earlier. The film focuses on the brief relationship that Keane strikes up with a young girl and her mother who he meets in the hotel he is living in.

Shot in 32 days for less than $1,000,000 the film was Kerrigan's second attempt at telling the story about a parent coping with the loss of a child through abduction. Two years earlier he completed filming a picture called In God's Hands, however, the negative was ruined in an accident at the film lab. Keane also shares a similar theme to his first film Clean, Shaven which focuses on a schizophrenic man trying to get his daughter back from her adoptive mother.

Keane premiered in 2004 at the Telluride Film Festival and was also screened at the 2004 Toronto International Film Festival the 2005 Cannes Film Festival. It won both the critics award and the July special prize at the 2005 Deauville American Film Festival before getting a limited New York only theatre release on September 9, 2005.
