The Spanish film ‘Sirât’, directed by Oliver Laxe, has been shortlisted in five categories for the Oscars, marking a historic milestone for Spanish cinema. Alongside it, the Argentine ‘Belén’ is contending for best international feature, and the animated short ‘El fantasma de la quinta’ has also made the list. The final nominations will be announced on January 22.
The film Los domingos, directed by Alauda Ruiz de Azúa, emerges as the favorite with 13 nominations for the 40th Goya Awards, to be held in Barcelona on February 28. Sirat, by Oliver Laxe, follows with 11 nods, in a contest marked by polarization between box-office hits and festival darlings. The ceremony will be hosted by Rigoberta Bandini and Luis Tosar.
