The 2025 Tribeca Film Festival is set to captivate audiences with a diverse array of films, documentaries, and performances. Among the highlights are Miley Cyrus' visual album "Something Beautiful" and Leonardo DiCaprio's production "Yanuni." The festival kicks off with the Billy Joel documentary "And So It Goes" and features an eclectic mix of feature films and music-related documentaries. These include works centered around artists like Counting Crows, Culture Club, and Eddie Vedder. Post-screening events promise live performances and engaging discussions, showcasing both emerging talents and established figures in the entertainment industry.

This year’s Tribeca Film Festival will showcase "Something Beautiful," a visual album directed by Miley Cyrus alongside Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter. This project, which complements Cyrus’ latest musical release, will make its global debut at the festival. Following the screening, attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a dialogue with the Grammy-winning artist herself. Meanwhile, "Yanuni," produced by environmental advocate Leonardo DiCaprio, takes center stage as part of the closing night gala. Directed by Richard Ladkani, this documentary tells the compelling story of Juma Xipaia, an Indigenous leader who has defied multiple assassination attempts while advocating for her community's land rights alongside her husband, Hugo Loss.

In addition to these high-profile projects, the festival will also present "And So It Goes," a documentary exploring the life and career of legendary musician Billy Joel. Opening the event, this film sets the tone for a lineup that includes various feature films such as "The Best You Can," starring Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick after two decades apart from joint roles. Other notable mentions include "Tow," featuring Rose Byrne, Demi Lovato, and Octavia Spencer; "Everything’s Going to be Great" with Bryan Cranston and Allison Janney; and "Rosemead," starring Lucy Liu. Also premiering is "She Dances," written and produced by Steve Zahn and starring Ethan Hawke, alongside a live-action adaptation of "How to Train Your Dragon."

Music enthusiasts can look forward to several world premiere documentaries dedicated to iconic musicians, including Counting Crows, Culture Club, and Metallica. Performances following screenings will feature Becky G, Eddie Vedder, and others, providing fans with unique opportunities to witness their favorite artists live. Discussions involving members of renowned bands like Metallica and Depeche Mode further enrich the festival experience. Moreover, documentaries addressing social issues, such as "Surviving Ohio State," supported by George Clooney, highlight the platform's commitment to meaningful storytelling.
