Jaeger-LeCoultre and Film Society of Lincoln Center are pleased to name English Director and Writer Andrea Arnold as the 2013 Filmmaker in Residence during the 51st New York Film Festival, as part of their multi-year partnership, which kicked off in April at the 40th Anniversary Chaplin Award Gala in April, honoring Barbra Streisand.
The Filmmaker in Residence initiative is to further the goals of filmmakers at an earlier stage in the creative process. Andrea Arnold will have the opportunity to focus on developing or refining new work, and participate in master classes, mentorships or cultural exchange and enrichment film programs with the Film Society of Lincoln members, the film community and the public.
“We are thrilled to announce Andrea Arnold as the 2013 Filmmaker in Residence during the 51st New York Film Festival. Our partnership with Jaeger-LeCoultre on this cornerstone program fosters excellence in the filmmaking community, and reflects our shared belief in the universal power of film to inspire and engage the global community.” -- Rose Kuo, Executive Director of the Film Society of Lincoln Center.
