Presented my MoMA and Film at Lincoln Center, New Directors/New Films 2025 showcases bold visions from new and emerging directors. Running April 2 to the 13th at MoMA Titus theater and Lincoln Center’s Walter Reade Theater, ND/NF showcases 24 features and nine short films, including 20 North American or U.S. premieres.

Films being shown include CycleMahesh in which  a young cyclist’s flabbergasting efforts to reach home form the foundation of a stirring docu-fiction about the great lengths we go for freedom. In Lesson Learned students, parents, and teachers are put under the microscope in Bálint Szimler’s thrilling, novelistic view of school life. Sad Jokes is about Joseph—a gay filmmaker and father to a young child whose work-life balance inspires little confidence, as he grapples with fatherhood and writing comedy.

Previous ND/NF luminaries include Ryûsuke Hamaguchi, Hou Hsiao-hsien, Kelly Reichardt, Pedro Almodóvar, Souleymane Cissé, Jia Zhangke, Spike Lee, Lynne Ramsay, Michael Haneke, Wong Kar-wai, Agnieszka Holland, Denis Villeneuve, Luca Guadagnino, and many others.
