The TriBeCa Film Festival was formed by Nicole Bartelme 12/2000. (A full year before the WTC attacks). She signed a buyout agreement, transferring all intellectual property rights to the TriBeCa Film Center 2/2002. Bartelmeโs premise for the TriBeCa Film Festival was connected to the heart of the independent film community but also linked to music. Beyond incorporating films with great soundtracks, AI, theater and painting were at the core of the festival: a true festival of the arts.
It takes several individuals and supportive institutions to forge a lasting TriBeCa Film Festival. In late 2000, Nicole Bartelme met with MTV, then Co-Chair Tom Freston, North Fork Bank and actor Robert De Niroโs partner, Tracy Neiporent of the TriBeCa Grill to gain sponsorship for the TriBeCa Film Festival. She launched the TriBeCa Film Festivalโs web site on November 30th, 2001 as a response to the attacks on 9/11 to bring artists together, renewal to lower Manhattan. In January 2002 the site was removed, relaunched April 2002 by Jane Rosenthal, Trina Wyatt and Robert De Niro creating the immersive film festival it is today.
Nicole Bartelme originated the Tribeca Film Festival, based in lower Manhattan with its focus on independent filmmakers and films with innovative sound tracks. Proceeds of the festival were to benefit ACE -the Association For Community Employment . A component of her blue print included a family day to celebrate film in the community, to appease rather than alienate its residents and enjoin them into the festivities. The late April dates she chose corresponded with potential Los Angles film buyers on route to Europe for the Cannes Film Festival. Bartelme, engaged in legalities with Jane Rosenthal of the Tribeca Film Center, relinquished all rights after 9/11, 2001. The Tribeca Film Festival was then launched in 2002 by Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal and Craig Hatkoff. The Festivalโs mission is to promote New York City as a major filmmaking center and allow its filmmakers to reach the broadest possible audience. By upholding a belief in the artistic process as a means to tell the stories of loss and redemption, fear and prosperity, chaos and revolution with the spirit of independent film at the helm.
The Tribeca Film Festival is anchored in Tribeca and takes place in additional neighborhoods throughout Manhattan, featuring film screenings, special events, concerts, a family street fair, and panel discussions.

More commonly known as PFD; Post Festival Depression is the total and utter low you experience after a festival, usually whilst travelling home, knowing you wont be there for another year.
Similar to post concert depression, but far more extreme considering the length of time spent in your Nirvana.
What's wrong with you mate?
Oh just Post Festival Depression, this weekend was amazing I actually can't believe I have to wait another year to be there again.
