64th New York Film Festival Announces Main Slate Lineup

Godzilla now has some friends to join him at the 64th New York Film Festival. Film at Lincoln Center has unveiled the 32 films that comprise the Main Slate lineup this year, featuring 17 directors making their Main Slate debuts. Taking place September 26-October 12, NYFF screenings will take place across all five boroughs: at Lincoln Center, BAM, Museum of the Moving Image, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, and AMC Bay Plaza Cinema in the Bronx.

Featured directors in the Main Slate include Pedro Almodóvar, Lisandro Alonso, Marine Atlan, Sompot Chidgasornpongse, Tizza Covi and Rainer Frimmel, Ava DuVernay, Arie Esiri and Chuko Esiri, Tony Gilroy, Alain Gomis, James Gray, William Greaves and David Greaves, Valeska Grisebach, Mani Haghighi, Andrew Haigh, Ryûsuke Hamaguchi, Arthur Harari, Hong Sangsoo, Radu Jude, Lee Chang-dong, Mike Leigh, Julia Loktev, Emmanuel Marre, Paweł Pawlikowski, Nicolás Pereda, Chris Rock, Ira Sachs, Angela Schanelec, Markus Schleinzer, Isabelle Stever, Sandra Wollner, and Andrey Zvyagintsev.

“It’s hard to recall a prior Main Slate program in which the state of the world has been as urgently reflected in so many creative ways,” said Dennis Lim, Artistic Director, New York Film Festival. “You could take any cross section of this lineup and come away with a vivid picture of what our present looks, sounds, and feels like. I’m deeply encouraged to be able to introduce New York audiences to works by so many fearless, imaginative directors whose artistry has been inspired by the shared realities of our world.”
