What to Do Today: April 23

There's no such thing as "sold out" at the Tribeca Film Festival. Even if advance tickets are no longer available, don't give up—try our Rush Tickets policy. We admit those standing in the Rush line approximately 15 minutes prior to a film or panel's scheduled start time, until a theater is at capacity. Lines begin forming approximately 45 minutes before each screening, so be sure to arrive early.
