import numpy as np
import cv2
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(video_name) #video_name is the video being called
cap.set(1,frame_no); # Where frame_no is the frame you want
ret, frame = cap.read() # Read the frame
cv2.imshow('window_name', frame) # show frame on window
#If you want to hold the window, until you press exit:

while True:
    ch = 0xFF & cv2.waitKey(1) # Wait for a second
    if ch == 27:
        break
