“The response to the films and all of our events throughout our 13th edition has been incredible,” said festival co-founder Jane Rosenthal. “We have some of the best audiences in the world and it was great to see them embrace the filmmakers, creators and our new Innovation Week over the last 12 days.”
The 2014 festival opened with the Nas documentary Time Is Illmatic and closed with John Carney’s comedy Begin Again, starring Keira Knightley, Mark Ruffalo, Hailee Steinfeld and Adam Levine.
