New Delhi, Dec 13: Filmmaker Payal Kapadia’s “All We Imagine As Light” has bagged a nomination in the Best Foreign Language Film category at the 30th annual Critics Choice Awards.

In the best foreign language film category, “All We Imagine As Light” is pitted against France’s “Emilia Pérez”, Latvia’s “Flow”, Ireland’s “Kneecap”, Brazil’s “I’m Still Here” and Germany’s “The Seed of the Sacred Fig”, which is directed by dissident Iranian filmmaker Mohammad Rasoulof.
The nod at the Critics Choice Awards for “All We Imagine As Light” comes days after the film picked up two nominations at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards.

The Malayalam-Hindi film, which marks Kapadia’s feature directorial debut, is nominated for Best Motion Picture Non-English Language and the Best Direction – Motion Picture at the upcoming awards.

“To be named as a nominee amongst incredible filmmakers at the Critics Choice Awards is a deep honour,” Kapadia said in a statement.

“Along with that, our film returning to several theaters this week across India – in Mumbai, Pune, Goa, Delhi NCR, Kolkata, and Bhubaneswar – is an incredible feeling. We are thrilled about the journey our film is on, and the support and love it’s receiving is something we are grateful for,” the filmmaker added.

“All We Imagine As Light”, an official India-French co-production, charted history by becoming the first Indian title from India to win the Grand Prix Award at the Cannes Film Festival in May.

It follows two nurses Prabha (Kani Kusruti) and Anu (Divya Prabha) from Kerala navigating life and love in Mumbai along with their friend and cook Parvaty (Chhaya Kadam).

Just recently, the movie was named the Best International Film by New York Film Critics Circle and won an award in the same category at the Gotham Awards.

“All We Imagine As Light” claimed the top spot at the Sight and Sound magazine’s annual list of 50 best movies of the year.
