Telluride Film Festival revealed the lineup for this year’s 47th edition which was scheduled to take place over Labor Day weekend September 3 to 7, but cancelled due to the global COVID19 pandemic.

“Though we aren’t able to present our program in-person as planned, we still want to announce the lineup to bring attention to these brilliant films,” said Telluride Film Festival executive director Julie Huntsinger. “We’ve listed everything we know about screening opportunities so that audiences may watch as many of these films as possible. The festival will continue to do everything in its power to champion and promote this art form and the people who create it.”
