New York Film Festival (NYFF) 2024

Each fall since 1963, New York City hosts the New York Film Festival, created by Amos Vogel and Richard Roud. With the support of Lincoln Center president, this event remains one of the most prestigious film festivals in the U.S.

The New York Film Festival's main aim is to demonstrate the development of contemporary trends and international film art in content, style, and form. Programming of the event is chaired by a rotating Selection Committee, presided by the Director of the New York Film Festival.

New York Film Festival Program

The Festival is one of the highlights of fall in New York City. It is non-competitive, and all of the occasions are centered around a “Main Slate” of usually around 25 feature films, with sidebars for experimental retrospectives and cinema. In 2024, the lineup of the Main Slate contains Nickel Boys, The Room Next Door, and Blitz.

Also, there are the Spotlight, expanding the vision of the Main Slate by showcasing a selection of the season’s most significant films; the Currents, providing a more complete picture of contemporary cinema; the Revivals, showcasing important works from renowned filmmakers; and Talks, which are conversations with filmmakers, critics, curators, and more.
