Tribeca Film Festival Day 3 Shines A Light On Trayvon Martin

The third day of the 17th Tribeca Film Festival presented by AT&T continued with a full day of screenings and events at venues around Lower Manhattan in New York City:

Trayvon Martin's parents Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin joined filmmakers and moderator Joy Reid for a panel following the world premiere of Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story, about the tragic death of Martin and its impact on the #BlackLivesMatter movement. The incredibly moving panel following the screening welcomed Martin's parents with two standing ovations. The Martins discussed their struggle to put off grieving to fight for justice, and the importance of the series in helping Trayvon's story live on.

On a panel following the world premiere of National Geographic's Genius: Picasso, Antonio Banderas spoke about the responsibility he felt to fill the shoes of the most prolific artists of all time, particularly having been born in the same Spanish city and growing up with the artist as an idol. He was joined by castmates Alex Rich, Clémence Poésy, and Samantha Colley, showrunner Ken Biller, executive producers Brian Grazer and Francie Calfo.

Alex Pettyfer's directorial debut Back Roads also made its world premiere tonight. His cast members, including Jennifer Morrison and Nicola Peltz, were all at the screening to support the film, which centers around a young man caring for his sisters after their mother is imprisoned for murdering their abusive father. Anwar Hadid was on hand to cheer on his girlfriend, Nicola.

Innovators Tony Faddell, Megan Smith, Joanna Hoffman, Marc Porat, Andy Hertzfeld attended the world premiere of their documentary General Magic, a tribute to their influential tech company. Bethany Hamilton arrived for the world premiere of Bethany Hamilton: Unstoppable and reunited on the red carpet with actress AnnaSophia Robb who depicted her in 2011's Soul Surfer. Jeffrey Wright, who portrays a maximum-security prison inmate in Madeleine Sackler's new film O.G., walked the carpet at the film's world premiere along with producer Boyd Holbrook and actor William Fichtner while Michael Angarano and Dree Hemingway supported their new film In A Relationship at SVA Theatre.
