Awards season is in full swing. The list of films competing for the prestigious American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Awards was just released. Among the nominees there are many outstanding filmmakers also recognized during the 31st EnergaCAMERIMAGE in Toruń, Poland.
One of the pictures which has emerged as a favorite in the Oscar® race is Poor Things, competing for 11 statuettes, including Best Picture, Directing, Writing (Adapted Screenplay) and Acting categories. The film opened the EnergaCAMERIMAGE 2023 and was competing for Golden Frog in Main Competition, winning the Bronze Frog, as well as the festival’s Audience Award.
But we are particularly excited about the Best Cinematography category, as we're delighted to announce that four motion pictures, highly appreciated at our festival, have received their Oscar® nominations.
Our sincere congratulations go to Ed Lachman (El Conde, Silver Frog), Robbie Ryan (Poor Things, Bronze Frog), Matthew Libatique (Maestro, Main Competition), Rodrigo Prieto (Killers of the Flower Moon, Main Competition) and Hoyte van Hoytema (Oppenheimer). Thank you for your stunning works and we are keeping our fingers crossed for all of you!
