The most anticipated cultural phenomenon of spring, The 2014 Tribeca Film Festival is upon us. From April 16 through April 27, some of Hollywood’s biggest stars will make their way to New York for the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival. Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal and Craig Hatkoff founded The Festival in 2001 following the attacks on the World Trade Center to spur the economic and cultural revitalization of downtown Manhattan through an annual celebration of film, music and culture. Through their foresight, they have created an enriching event for the entire city. Culled from more than 6,000 submissions, Tribeca 2014 includes 55 world premieres, 37 first-time filmmakers, and 22 female directors.
For schedule, tickets, videos, talks with the film makers and all things relevant to the festival, go to Tribeca Film Festival 2014.
