Tribeca Festival 2026 Announces World Premieres of Frampton and 4000 Days

The Tribeca Festival 2026 is set to spotlight two powerful documentary world premieres from 10 Lives Studios: ‘Frampton’ and ‘4000 Days.’ Together, the films offer deeply personal and socially resonant stories. The former chronicles the life of the titular music icon, while the latter captures a movement born from tragedy.

Directed and co-written by Rob Arthur, ‘Frampton’ is an intimate portrait of legendary musician Peter Frampton. The music-driven movie traces his extraordinary journey from global superstardom to personal and artistic reinvention.

The documentary revisits Frampton’s meteoric rise in the 1970s, propelled by the landmark success of ‘Frampton Comes Alive!’ The film explores the challenges that followed as he navigated shifting musical landscapes, personal struggles and the pressures of fame. Through rare archival footage featuring, and candid interviews with, Cameron Crowe, Tom Morello, Sheryl Crow, Ringo Starr and Alice Cooper, the movie reveals the sacrifices behind the spotlight and the resilience required to rebuild a lasting career.

Now facing Inclusion Body Myositis, a progressive condition affecting his ability to perform, Frampton confronts a pivotal chapter in his life. ‘Frampton’ captures the poignancy of this moment, celebrating a legacy defined not only by musical success but by endurance, reflection and renewed purpose.

‘Frampton’ will have its World Premiere in the Spotlight+ section at the Tribeca Festival. The screening will be held on Thursday, June 4 at 8:00pm ET at the OKX Theater at BMCC TPAC. For more information on the documentary’s World Premiere, visit its page on the festival’s website.

Helmed, co-scribbed and produced by Daniel E. Catullo III, ‘4000 Days’ is a powerful and emotionally charged documentary. The biographical film follows three families who transform personal loss into a nationwide movement for change.

After losing their sons to fraternity hazing, the families unite to challenge a system marked by secrecy and lack of accountability. Over the course of more than a decade – symbolized by the movie’s title – they fight to raise awareness, demand justice and advocate for legislative reform.

Through deeply personal testimony and unprecedented access, ‘4000 Days’ documents the emotional toll of grief while highlighting the determination required to turn tragedy into meaningful action. The political documentary ultimately sheds light on the broader cultural and institutional changes needed to prevent future loss.

‘4000 Days’ will have its World Premiere in the Spotlight Documentary section at the Tribeca Festival. The screening will be held on Wednesday, June 10 at 5:30pm ET at the Village East by Angelik. For more information on the film’s World Premiere, visit its page on the festival’s website.
