Tribeca 25 arrives on Netflix on September 11, 2026, documenting 25 years of the Tribeca Festival and the way storytelling helped rebuild a community after September 11. Netflix describes it as a documentary about the festival’s history and cultural role.
The film is a timely weekend option for viewers who want a non-fiction release rather than a scripted thriller or competition series. Its focus is the festival’s development and the people who used film and storytelling to respond to a changed city.
