The 2022 Gotham Awards are taking place at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City to honor the best independent films of the year. TheWrap will update the list of winners as they are announced.
The Best Actor award went to Gracija Filipović for the Croatian drama “Murina”.
Todd Field won the Screenplay Award for “The Wire”.
French abortion drama “Happening” won best international feature over films such as “The Banshees of Inishrin” and “Decision to Leave”, while the documentary award went to Indian film “All That Breathes”.
Eligibility for the Gotham Prize is limited to films longer than 70 minutes that were made for less than $35 million. Films must be directed and/or produced and/or written by US citizens or filmmakers permanently located in the United States. The films must also qualify as “filmmaking with a vision”, which Gotham defines as a work “where the vision of an individual director, producer, writer or writer/director is abundantly clear, and Where the film cannot be defined classically as a ‘work for hire.’
(Special tribute categories of shows are not bound by those rules.)
In the 18 years the Gotham Awards have awarded Best Feature, the Gotham winner has won the Oscar only five times, most recently with “Nomadland” in 2020.
The Gotham winners were selected by several different juries of “distinguished filmmakers”, according to the Gotham Film and Media Institute. The organization said that the jury “often consists of directors, writers, producers, editors, actors, directors of photography, and other people directly involved with the making of film and television.”
Also at the ceremony, “Hustle” star Adam Sandler and “The Fablemans” star Michelle Williams received performer tributes in the show, while the cast of Andrew Ahn’s “Fire Island” received ensemble tributes. Other special honorees include directors Gina Prince-Bythewood (Filmmaker Tribute), Sidney Poitier (Icon Tribute), Audible Founder Don Katz (Innovator Tribute), Peter Kujawski and Jason Cassidy of Focus Features (Industry Tribute) and Venice Film Festival (Gotham Impact ) were included.
