The Female Friendship in Screen Award went to Nyad starring Annette Bening and Jodie Foster depicting sixty-four-year-old marathon swimmer Diana Nyad’s attempts to become the first person ever to swim from Cuba to Florida. The ensemble Cast Award went to Bottoms.
The Girls On Film Ally Award, awarded to a male ally in the film industry who has demonstrated great commitment to the representation of women this year and sponsored by IMDb, went to William Oldroyd for Eileen. Reclaim The Frame, who champion marginalised perspectives in cinema, won this years’ Activist Impact Award, The Fiction Feature Award, sponsored by EON Productions, went to Celine Song’s exquisite Past Lives and the Feature Documentary Award went to Kokomo City.
Reflecting the ethos of the Girls On Film podcast, hosted by Anna Smith, the awards reward excellence in women-focused films in the fields of diversity, inclusion and the representation of women and people of marginalised genders.
The voters for the Girls On Film Awards 2024 were predominantly leading and diverse women film critics from around the UK, and male film critics who are allies and have appeared on the Girls On Film podcast.
The Girls On Film Awards were hosted by Anna Smith and Hedda Archbold on 20 February 2024 at Regent Street Cinema in Central London, days after the EE BAFTA Film Awards and in the run up to International Women’s Day. The ceremony was attended by nominees, patrons and previous award winners.
