Frances McDormand’s ‘Nomadland’ to Play Venice, Toronto, New York Under Fest Alliance
will screen the film as the Centerpiece Selection of the 58th edition of the festival, leading into a domestic theatrical release this fall, and subsequently rolling out internationally.
The statement first announcing the alliance provided no specifics around what concrete form it would take, beyond saying that the festivals will offer “a united platform for the best cinema we can find.” News of the shared screening of “Nomadland” goes some way in answering questions about how the festivals’ collaboration will ultimately manifest, particularly in a year when the pressure of launching awards season movies is slightly lifted due to the Oscars’ date shift to April.
“The American road fascinates me. It’s heartbreakingly beautiful and deeply complicated. I’ve traveled it for many years and always hoped to capture a glimpse of it. I’m thankful to be able to make ‘Nomadland’ and excited for audiences to join Fern on her adventure,” said Zhao.
