The 32nd annual Hamptons International Film Festival, presented by Regina K. Scully’s Artemis Rising Foundation, will now feature Amazon MGM Studios’ Nickel Boys, directed by RaMell Ross and chronicling the powerful friendship between two Black teenagers who become wards of a juvenile reformatory in Jim Crow-era Florida; and Paramount Pictures’ September 5, directed by Tim Fehlbaum and spotlighting the ABC Sports broadcasting team that quickly adapted from sports reporting to live coverage of the Israeli athletes taken hostage during the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich; as well as this year’s Palme d’Or winner, Neon’s Anora, directed by Sean Baker and following a young sex worker from Brooklyn who gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and impulsively marries the son of an oligarch.

The beloved festival will run October 4-14, with screenings and events taking place across the East End. Member presale for individual tickets will begin Saturday, September 21, at noon ET, and individual tickets will be made available to the general public beginning Monday, September 23, at noon ET. hamptonsfilmfest.org
