The Tribeca Festival kicks off Wednesday marking its 25th year!
As the story goes, 25 years ago, Robert De Niro and Jane Rosenthal had an idea: use what they know to help the city they love.
So, they started the Tribeca Festival to help Lower Manhattan after 9/11. More than $1,000,000,000 in economic impact for the city, safe to say, it worked.
This year brings a slate of more than 100 feature films, premieres, talks and reunions, including a highly anticipated one between Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro.
From old films to new, TV, podcasts, documentaries, games, immersive experiences and music, the festival covers it all.
