June 11, (THEWILL) – Nollywood actress, Stephanie Linus, has joined the jury of the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival.
The 2023 Tribeca Film Festival started on Wednesday, June 7, 2023, in New York and will end on June 18.
Linus was chosen as one member of a five-person jury, which includes Mark Duplass, Adam Goldberg, Alexandra Pelosi and Ryan White.
The members will select winning projects in film, immersive games, and audio storytelling sections for the festival.
109 films from 27 filmmakers across 36 countries will be featuring in this year’s festival.
The festival started with a documentary ‘Kiss the Future’, which follows the story of an underground community that lived through a nearly four-year-long siege.

“I am having a great time reviewing the shortlisted films and recommending winners for the 2023 Tribeca Festival.
“It is such an exciting festival with many voices amplified, especially women’s voices. It has given a platform for both new and seasoned filmmakers to showcase their works,” she stated.
