It’s about time for the annual New Directors/New Films Festival. Set to take place April 3 – 14, the festival presented by Film at Lincoln Center and the Museum of Modern Art features a slew of early 2024 festival favorites. Nd/Nf opens with Sundance hit “A Different Man,” directed by breakout filmmaker Aaron Schimberg. Sebastian Stan won the Berlinale best actor award for his turn in the feature as an actor who undergoes a facial reconfiguration surgery.
Film at Lincoln Center programmer and 2024 New Directors/New Films co-chair Dan Sullivan billed “A Different Man” as a “delirious, complex, and hilarious work that evokes the best black comedies produced on the streets and inside the apartments of New York City in the 1960s and ’70s (with a healthy dash of body horror and metanarrative).”
Nd/Nf closes with fellow New York-based film “Stress Positions,” which also premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival.
