Film at Lincoln Center Anncounces Fall/Winter Lineup

FLC PARTNER FESTIVAL SCHEDULE FOR 2025 NOW AVAILABLE

[New York, NY — September 9, 2024] Film at Lincoln Center has announced its lineup of festival, repertory, and new release programming for the 2024 fall/winter season, from October to December, and the 2025 partner festival schedule.

This fall at FLC brings several Cannes award-winning new releases from the 62nd New York Film Festival, including: Palme d’Or winner Anora, Sean Baker’s screwball comedy about sex, love, and money starring Mikey Madison; and All We Imagine as Light, Payal Kapadia’s revelatory, Grand Prize-winning fiction feature debut about three working-class women dealing with professional and romantic disruptions.

FLC will also present the 2024 Berlin Film Festival Golden Bear winner Dahomey, Mati Diop’s portrayal of the return of 26 treasures of the African kingdom of Dahomey after they were plundered by French colonial troops.

Additional new releases from the 62nd New York Film Festival include: Closing Night selection Blitz, Steve McQueen’s recreation of London during its blitzkrieg by the Germans during World War II, about a working-class single mother Rita (Saoirse Ronan) separated from her 9-year-old son; Hard Truths, Mike Leigh’s raw, uncompromising domestic drama starring Marianne Jean-Baptiste, in a gutsy performance as a middle-aged, working-class woman whose emotional and physical health problems have metastasized into a profound and relentless anger; Centerpiece selection The Room Next Door, Pedro Almodóvar’s first English-language feature, a finely sculpted drama starring Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton as writers who rekindle their friendship after years apart, until their bond is tested by one’s unusual request; No Other Land, an eye-opening, vérité-style documentary by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four directors-Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham, and Rachel Szor-telling the harrowing account of the destruction of Palestinian villages in the southern West Bank at the hands of the Israeli military; and A Traveler’s Needs, Hong Sangsoo’s gentle exploration of human motivation and the surprising connections between people despite-or because of-language barriers, starring Isabelle Huppert in her third outing with the director.

A special treat for FLC audiences is a 4K restoration of one of the most beloved Soviet-era films, Sergei Parajanov’s Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors, a stirring tale of star-crossed lovers battling both natural and supernatural forces.

In addition, FLC is pleased to present Robert Siodmak: Dark Visionary, a retrospective dedicated to one of Hollywood’s most enduringly influential yet too-little-celebrated helmers, featuring an assortment of new 4K digital restorations of his signature films.

FLC also announces its 2025 schedule of partner festivals, which offer audiences the opportunity to discover works from established and emerging directors from around the world with a passionate community of film lovers at marquee events, including: New York Jewish Film Festival, Rendez-Vous With French Cinema, New Directors/New Films, Open Roads: New Italian Cinema, New York African Film Festival, the FLC Outdoor Film Series (presented as part of Lincoln Center’s annual “Summer for the City”), and more to be announced.
