Film at Lincoln Center Announces 2022 NYFF Main Slate
Film at Lincoln Center has announced the main slate for the 2022 New York Film Festival, featuring anticipated films from celebrated auteurs and promising newcomers alike. Noah Baumbach’s adaptation of Don DeLillo’s novel White Noise will open the 60th edition of the festival, while Laura Poitras’s All the Beauty and the Bloodshed serves as the Centerpiece selection and The Inspection, the narrative debut from director Elegance Bratton, closes it out.
Directors also featured in the program include James Gray, Claire Denis, Frederick Wiseman, Park Chan-wook, Paul Schrader, Kelly Reichardt, Ruben Östlund and Todd Field. Filmmakers Mia Hansen-Løve, Joanna Hogg and Hong Sangsoo return after having films featured in last year’s NYFF. Once again, Sangsoo provides a double-header with two films programmed in the festival’s main slate.
Just one year after his son Panah Panahi’s debut Hit the Road played at the NYFF, acclaimed Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi has a film in this year’s festival. Last month, Jafar Panahi was sentenced to six years in prison for “propaganda against the system” in his home country.
The festival will take place from September 30 through October 16. Festival passes are now on sale, though only available in limited quantities. The entire Main Slate line-up is included below.
