New York Film Festival 2021

Presented by Film at Lincoln Center, the New York Film Festival–now in its 59th edition–highlights the best in world cinema. An annual bellwether of the state of cinema that has shaped film culture since 1963, the festival continues a long-standing tradition of introducing audiences to bold and remarkable works from celebrated filmmakers as well as fresh new talent.

NYFF59 is comprised of five sections:
Main Slate is the heart and historic core of the program.
Currents complements the Main Slate, tracing a more complete picture of contemporary cinema with an emphasis on new and innovative forms and voices.
Spotlight is NYFF’s showcase of the season’s most anticipated and significant films.
Revivals showcases important works from renowned filmmakers that have been digitally remastered, restored, and preserved with the assistance of generous partners.
Talks features in-depth conversations with filmmakers, critics, curators, and more.

NYFF59 will take place at Film at Lincoln Center’s Walter Reade Theater and Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center, Alice Tully Hall, and more venues to be announced.
