Tribeca Festival Sets Short Film Lineup For 2024
The Tribeca Festival on Tuesday announced its lineup of short narrative, documentary, and animated films, as well as music videos for 2024.
Across its 12 short film sections, the festival will showcase 87 works from 101 filmmakers in 27 countries, the most ever repped at Tribeca. World premieres include Motorcycle Mary, a profile on motorsports pioneer Mary McGee from director-producer Haley Watson, as well as producers Rachel Greenwald, Ben Proudfoot and Lewis Hamilton; the not-so-straightforward queer love story Ripe!, produced by two-time World Cup champion and Olympic gold medalist Kelley O’Hara; the PTSD tale Bite starring Troian Bellisario; and Out of the Dark: Cal Calamia, an intimate look at Cal Calamia, a transgender marathon runner advocating for athletic inclusion. The New York narrative shorts lineup includes the world premieres of Happy to Help You starring Amy Sedaris and Jeremy Beiler, and Veo Veo A Family, a story of familial bonds starring Carla Gugino and KO.

“Tribeca received more than 8,000 short film submissions, and for the first time, we’re proud to present a majority-female directed program,” said Tribeca VP of Shorts Programming Ben Thompson. “We hope our 12 curated shorts programs—and our first-ever online music video competition—will delight, inspire, and even titillate our enthusiastic New York audiences as they discover diverse storytelling from original voices all over the world.”
This year’s festival will take place from June 5-16. For a look at all the shorts set to play it, read on.
