Venice Film Festival
Venice, Italy | Aug. 30 - Sept. 9, 2023

The 80th Venice International Film Festival opened Wednesday without its usual star power due to the ongoing strikes in Hollywood.

Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein drama “Maestro,” Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla Presley movie, Michael Mann’s “Ferrari,” David Fincher’s “The Killer” and Ava DuVernay’s “Origin” will make their world debuts at the Venice International Film Festival this fall.

Venice has never been a festival to shy away from controversial directors and has programmed new films from both Roman Polanski and Woody Allen.

The jury presiding over the main competition this year is full of high-profile directors, including Damien Chazelle, Jane Campion, Martin McDonagh and last year’s Golden Lion winner Laura Poitras.

The Venice Film Festival runs from Aug. 30 through Sept. 9.
