NEW YORK The 12th annual Tribeca Film Festival will feature everything from Will Forte's dramatic film debut to a tale of arctic cowboys herding reindeer.

The New York festival on Tuesday announced 46 of the 89 feature films that will make up this year's lineup. The films include those in competition at Tribeca, in both narrative and documentary categories, as well as those in its out-of-competition "Viewpoints" section that highlights unique perspectives.

This year's slate, culled from more than 6,000 submissions, is the typical grab bag of American independent films, issue-driven documentaries and international curiosities that customarily populate the Tribeca Film Festival's downtown screens for two weeks every spring.

Lance Edmands' "Bluebird" will open the narrative competition with a drama about a Maine logging town, starring Amy Morton, Adam Driver of "Girls," John Slattery and Margo Martindale. Also in the category is a romantic drama from "Sherrybaby" director Laurie Collyer.
