“Rocks,” “His House” and “The Father” were the leaders at the British Independent Film Awards (BIFAs), which were announced Thursday.
Coming-of-age drama “Rocks” won best British independent film, with Kosar Ali winning the awards for both best supporting actress and most promising newcomer with her young co-star D’Angelou Osei Kissiedu winning best supporting actor. Lucy Pardee’s best casting award, which was among the craft award winners announced in January, takes the “Rocks” tally to five.
Remi Weekes won best director and Wunmi Mosaku won best actress for horror film “His House.” The film also won the best production design and effects awards.
Anthony Hopkins’ portrayal of an ageing man in “The Father” won best actor, and the film also won best screenplay for writer-director Florian Zeller and Christopher Hampton, and best editing for Yorgos Lamprinos.
In a year when awards were spread evenly, “Saint Maud,” “Mogul Mowgli,” “Misbehaviour” and “The Reason I Jump” had two wins each.
Chloé Zhao’s “Nomadland” won best international independent film, the only awards category open to non-U.K. films.
The online ceremony was hosted by actor Tom Felton live from Wales, where he is filming Sky Cinema film “Save the Cinema.”
The event saw a galaxy of star presenters, including several from the Netflix world like “Bridgerton” star Regé-Jean Page, Zendaya of “Malcolm & Marie,” “The Crown” star Emma Corrin, Priyanka Chopra Jonas from “The White Tiger” and “Sex Education” actors Ncuti Gatwa and Aimee Lou Wood. Other presenters included “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” star Maria Bakalova, “McMafia” lead James Norton, “The Personal History of David Copperfield” filmmaker Armando Iannucci, “Get Out” star Daniel Kaluuya and Daisy Edgar-Jones from “Normal People.”
