Writer Spike Lee and director Pola Maneli drop their new animated short APART at Tribeca Film Festival 2026, with a post-screening conversation with programmer Whoopi Goldberg. The show starts Saturday, June 13th at 6:15 pm at AMC 05 - AMC 19th Street East 6 (890 Broadway).
Amid the harsh realities of South African apartheid, two boys – Themba and Joel – form a dangerous friendship. As hate and fear threaten to pull them apart, their bond faces its greatest challenge in the form of a life-saving gesture. Through their eyes, we glimpse a moment of innocence—where hope, empathy, and understanding still feel possible.
