A mild surprise atop the 2022 North Dakota Film Society awards, as Aftersun takes the Best Picture award. It beats Everything Everywhere All at Once, the Best Director winner here, and Babylon with its three wins, the most of any one title. Dolly de Leon picks up a well-deserved Best Supporting Actress award for Triangle of Sadness, and other multiple-winning movies include Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, Top Gun: Maverick and The Whale.
